There is no chance this is PHP doing that.  You must have something else going on

After further investigation it appears that Microsoft is the culprit.  The code was being run in a popup window created by a javascript call to window.open(). Internet Explorer was then modifying the output of teh page to 'prevent cross-site scripting'.

Please tell me you aren't attempting to pass SQL code through the user's browser.
