Strange language file problem

[HotAir]

This is really wierd... Everything's been going along fine. Tonight I check my site and the 68c generated pages are showing the template's language variables, not the text that should be showing. In other words, I'm seeing these:
LANG_BROWSE_CATEGORY
LANG_SHOWING_PAGE 1 LANG_SHOWING_PAGE_OF 1
LANG_PHOTO
LANG_VIEW_LISTING
etc.

on the pages instead of the text in the language file.

Now here's what is really strange - this is only happening on my primary computer (Windows 2000) with ie6 - it doesn't happen with FireFox on the same computer, or on any of my XP machines.

These pages were fine a few hours ago on the same computer. I cleared the browser cache and rebooted, but it is still happening. It's wierd that it is a specific computer only - the smarty engine should be sending the page content, right? It should be browser or OS independent since the data is on the server side.

This has me totally stumped. Why is smarty not sending the correct data, and why is it not happening for all browsers?

Here is a screen cap of what I'm seeing:


Any thoughts?

Any thoughts on this? Should I submit a support ticket instead of waiting for replies here?

Thanks

Have you checkd on your language file to make sure its in place and its permissions are correct?

Hi Larry,

Just checked and all is well with the language files. I also did this:
Switched to a different language - problem still exists
Cleared complied templates, cleared browser cache again - problem still exists

The weird thing I can't figure out is why this is occuring with only my Win2K/IE6 computer and not XP. The page content sent from the server shouldn't be different for different browsers - I'm not doing any browser detection on the site.

Regards,
Jim
