The reason that you are seeing different output from PHP is that the
validator does not support cookies. Because it does not support
cookies, PHP automatically alters all links to include the session
ID. When you use Firefox with cookies enabled, PHP does not alter the
links. Try disabling cookies in Firefox to get the same result.
For more information, see http://php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php
