Well placed opening or Closing tag < or >, IE6 CRAP

Spaceship Spaceship
Watch
Please look at my code and try and figure out why my images will only show up if I place an Extra Opening or Closing tag at the point indicated in red under #2.

#1 - Works great in all except IE6 - My jpg images will not show up.
<div id="frontpagecenter">
<div id="innerboxfrontpage0"><div id="diningcard1"><a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=Fundraiser">
<img border="0" alt="Update box" src="images/update.jpg" id="b2" width="535" height="120" onmouseover="mouseOver1()" onmouseout="mouseOut1()" /></a></div>

<div id="diningcard"><a href="dining_card.htm" title="Toledo Menus Dining Card">
<img border="0" alt="Toledo Menus Dining Card Logo" src="images/diningcard.jpg" id="b1" width="535" height="90" onmouseover="mouseOver()" onmouseout="mouseOut()" /></a></div>

<div id="downtownlistings"><img src="images/featuredfrontpage.jpg" alt="featured restaurants logo" width="399" height="64.8" longdesc="default.htm" /></div></div>

......miles of code later the frontpagecenter is closed....</div>

#2 Works in IE6 but the damn < tag shows up on the site but so do my images.
<div id="frontpagecenter">>

Dreamweaver hasn't told me about any errors when I check and validated my code.

Help Please!:'(

There were some minor problems but nothing that is causing this IE6 issue. That validator hates external links to google maps!!

Would be helpful if you could either post the rest of the code or the url so we can look at the entire page.

BTW, did you do a Check Page -> Browser Compatibility in Dreamweaver?

That will be a lot of code. I did the Browse comp. Check and nothing came up.
