Basically I have a php script that shows an image:

I also have an iframe that has this:

iframe src="http://www.example.com/script1.php"></iframe

However the image is not displayed at all (i.e the script is not run, but it
runs if I run it offline)

I am wondering what needs to be done for the script to run online

Why the IFRAME at all??? Just

<?php include('script1.php'); ?>

and be done with it!

I would like anyone viewing the page to be redirected to the php script
within the iframe (or directed still somehow on the same page, was told an
iframe could do this)

I don't know what you mean by "directed" and "redirected". From your
previous message I assumed you meant that script1.php was the file that
contained the code you showed us that generates the IMG tag. So the
response from script1.php should be displayed inside the IFRAME. No
redirection is involved in that.

Besides that, a single IMG tag is not a valid HTML document. Technically
you can get along with just a DOCTYPE declaration and a TITLE tag in
addition to the IMG tag.

I agree with Jonathan: I still can't figure out what you're really
trying to accomplish or why you need an IFRAME to do it.

I should have mentioned that the iframe should have two images, one the
initial image, and the second the redirected image contained in script1.php

You seem to be misusing the word "redirected", but nobody knows for
sure. Post a URL.

This is what I am trying to accomplish:

Looks more like you are trying to fix the wrong problem. You've decided
on a solution before you've even figured out what the real goal is.

Don't post code, post a URL.

I don't think that's quite right. The HEAD _element_ is required,
but neither start nor end tags are required:

--- begin quote ---
<!ENTITY % html.content "HEAD, BODY">

<!ELEMENT HTML O O (%html.content

-- document root element -->
--- end quote ---

However if you use a TITLE, both opening and closing tag are required
and is to be within the HEAD.

The TITLE element is also required:

--- begin quote ---
<!ENTITY % head.content "TITLE & BASE?">

<!ELEMENT HEAD O O (%head.content

+(%head.misc

-- document head -->
--- end quote ---
(from http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/sgml/dtd.html#head.content )

And further:

--- begin quote ---
Every HTML document must have a TITLE element in the HEAD section.
--- end quote ---

jojo is quite right here.

Just for the ones who are interested in: a document without a <head> but
a <title> validates fine. A document with a <head> but no <title> or
with neither a head nor a title doesn't. Try it out:

<title> only:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ww..._only.htm&ss=1

<head> only:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ww..._only.htm&ss=1

neither <head> nor <title>:
