vb.org Archive - weird expansion in phrases...

Here is my code, from the "navbar" template under breadcrumbs
I'm moving it into the header, well at least this part of it (which is the login boxes)

My problem is that where the phrases are, "Private messages : 0 new, 2 total" are in this code the table expands to maybe 150 pixels tall instead of it's normal 20-30something. It seems totally unexplainable as i will remove this code:

PHP Code:


		
			
<if condition="$show['pmstats']"><br /><phrase 1="$vbphrase[unread_x_nav_compiled]" 2="$vbphrase[total_x_nav_compiled]" 3="$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[private_messages_nav]</phrase></if>

and it's back to 20-30 pixels tall.

the full code:

PHP Code:


		
			
<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

function log_out()

{

    ht = document.getElementsByTagName("html");

    ht[0].style.filter = "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(grayscale=1)";

    if (confirm('$vbphrase[sure_you_want_to_log_out]'))

    {

        return true;

    }

    else

    {

        ht[0].style.filter = "";

        return false;

    }

}

//-->

</script>
