Cool. It's not my code either :-) One of my coworkers wrote it. I just
thought it was an interesting approach. Granted many will replace
approach with hack....

If the only goal is to avoid reading a file at server startup, then
for myself I don't find that a worthwhile goal and would continue to
use a separate html file for clarity.

I would? Oh, because JavaScript strings don't like to be multiline? I
had forgotten that.

As far as I can tell, you don't need to intersperse quotes and concat;
you can put a backslash before the newline, but I agree that's still
not as good as being able to use the unaltered html as you can with
your method.

I didn't want to ignore it; I wanted to understand it. :)
