Blank site in IE and Opera? (FIXED)

Hello everyone!

I'm probably making some sort of horrible noob mistake, but for some reason, my website

http://paperorplastic.comicgenesis.com

isn't showing up in IE (page is blank, but with correct background color) and Opera (comes up white), but it's working just fine in Firefox and Safari... what gives? Incidentally, viewing the page source in the offending browsers comes up with the code I wrote (plus the CG-inserted code).

I've worn down my fingernails from scratching my head...

I tried to check the FAQs and other posts, but without much luck.

A very confused Mark

A lot of people ask this - there's a flaw in the automatically generated templates. In the head, there's a place that says --!> where it should just be --> and IE and Opera don't correct for it.

If that was your problem, you seem to have fixed it. Your code is correct and your site looks the same from here in IE and Firefox.

Indeed, yes - I'd not spent enough time looking through the forums for the solution - my only excuse is that I was supposed to be getting ready for work, and I was in a mad panic. But many thanks to you, Wendybird, for taking the time to explain my error. And apologies to those who wasted their time reading what turned out to be a pointless question!

Ah, well... On with the motley!
