I have a fairly default install of 1.4rc1 at http://www.wikigaming.com/ that I am getting a syntax error from on IE 6/Win. Specifically it states that there is a syntax error on line 14, char 1 on every page. Looking at the source, I notice that there are 10 blank lines before the !DOCTYPE tag, and that line 14 is the first meta tag (Content-Type). This occurs on every page generated by mediawiki (including special pages, and other generated content), but I don't have this problem with other pages on the site, so my guess is that it is related to index.php or OutputPage. Has anyone had any experience with this before? or know what may be causing it? or even if the blank lines would have anything to do with the syntax error from IE?
Thanks in advance!

Do you have a lot of blank lines at the start or end of your LocalSettings.php? Have you edited any other files with the same effect?
