I was getting similar garbage when I took over a virtual site on a 
neighbor network.  The previous webmaster had used DreamWeaver to create 
his pages and there were many blank (?) lines and confusing indentation 
in the source code.  In an effort to figure out where the garbage was 
coming from, I manually restructured the source to remove blank lines 
and logically indent.  The problem went away.  I still don't know what 
caused it (only showed up in Netscape 4.*, not IE, Konqueror, or 
Mozilla).  I have found Netscape sensitive to formatting on other 
occasions where not logically indenting code has resulted in not 
displaying anything.
