Ads on every page but not validating

    I have a few other accounts with COOP ads running fine.

    However, today, I added a new site and have the ads display on every page via a footer.

    When I try to validate I get:

    Ads not found on http://www.mysite.com/B0001CSIZQ.shtml
    Ads not found on http://www.mysite.com/

    But the COOP ads are clearly visibile and my ads.txt file is filling up.

    What is the useragent of the validator or IP so I can check my error logs?

    For those with a similar problem validating their sites, I just wanted to update as to the fix.

    I was using <iframe> to port the COOP ads into the footer of my .shtml pages as the php approach did not work.

    This method is sucessful in showing the COOP ads; however, the validator spider is not capable of seeing them at this point.

    Solution was to wrap the COOP php ads in a .cgi wrapper and include them using SSI.
