BSP OTRs and MIME Objects do not appear

Question

Dear SDN Members:
I have been facing a very peculiar issue. At first we had problems in our Z* BSP Application with SY-SUBRC values after a
READ TABLE itab INTO wa WITH KEY field1 = var_field1.
If there were no matching record(s) in Internal table, the SY-SUBRC value was still '0' (Zero) and not 4 etc..
Now another problem has cropped up...
At a point in the program (Layout section), there are some HTML lines and OTRs+MIME objects to be executed.
The program executes those lines as visible in debugger, but does not display the same on Internet Explorer screen. The OTRs and .gif files do not appear in this case. A small preview of the code is pasted here below:
We have recently upgraded our Quality/Testing server to CRM 4.0 from CRM 3.0 and are doing Application Testing.
<td class="body" width="100" style="vertical-align:middle; text-align:center">
<% if a_fcode_tknra = 'change' and application->c_rolle_user <> 'P' and ls_release-releaseid = '-'. %>
<input type="image" style="background-color:#EEEEEE" src="/SAP/BC/BSP/SAP/ZSM_TKNRA_PLUS/IMAGES/s_b_chng.gif" name="onInputProcessing(change_au_detail__<%=ls_au_ext-auid%>)"
alt="<%=otr(ZSM_SAMOS/ZSM_TKN_RA_RA_KE_P05_AENDERN)%>">
   <input type="image" style="background-color:#EEEEEE" src="/SAP/BC/BSP/SAP/ZSM_TKNRA_PLUS/IMAGES/s_b_dele.gif" name="onInputProcessing(delete_au_detail__<%=ls_au_ext-auid%>)"
alt="<%=otr(zsm_samos/delete)%>" onClick="delete_and_confirm();">
<% endif. %>
<% if a_fcode_tknra = 'change' or a_fcode_tknra = 'display'. %>
   <input type="image" style="background-color:#EEEEEE" src="/SAP/BC/BSP/SAP/ZSM_TKNRA_PLUS/IMAGES/s_b_disp.gif" name="onInputProcessing(display_au_detail_<%=ls_au_ext-auid%>)"
alt="<%=otr(ZSM_SAMOS/ZSM_TKN_RA_RA_KE_P05_ANZEIGEN)%>">
<% endif. %>
</td>
Please help me understand how to go about solving this.
Regards.
Vivek.

Thanks Raja for posting back. The issue is slightly more complex: there are other "src" usages, but they are working fine in other sections of the layout code. The MIME objects have all been stored at right places.
This BSP Application has been in use since 2-3 years. Only while we posed for CRM 3.xx to 4.xx upgrade, we are facing these issues in Quality Testing.
We have tried some 2-3 permutations and combinations for this part of code, but nothing works. Do you think the source path changes in different CRM versions? Or do OTRs face some compatibility issues? Do guide me with them.
The READ table issue is a shocker for us as well!
Ofcourse the work area is empty, as nothing's there to be read! Now we have placed a double check with "work area NOT INITIAL" to override this problem. In fact this is on SAP OSS as Priority 1 issue but no definite solution has been provided till date, except that they were talking of some Kernel patch (...??).
Do let me know if you can think of some reason for this abnormal behavior, as right now everything is "out-of-the-box".
Thanks.
Vivek.
