just a quick syntax question: here is my php

<?
$openingItemTag = "<item>\n";
$openingEntry = " <entry ";
$numberAtt = "number=";
$nameAtt = "name=";
$dateAtt = "date=";
$messageAtt = "message=";
$linkAtt = "link=";
$closingEntry = "/>\n";
$closingItemTag = "</item>";

$Entry=
$openingEntry.$numberAtt.$myNumber.$nameAtt.$myName.$dateAtt.$myDate.
$messageAtt.$myMessage. $linkAtt.$myLink.$closingEntry;
$Item = $openingItemTag.$Entry.$closingItemTag;

$fp = fopen ("news.xml", "a");
fwrite($fp,$Item);
fclose($fp);
?>


if done twice it returns this:

<item>
 <entry number=01name=travisdate=01.08.02message=hello
worldlink=http://www.me.com/>
</item><item>
 <entry number=01name=travisdate=01.08.02message=hello
worldlink=http://www.me.com/>
</item>

i want it to display as follows:

<item>
 <entry number="01" name="travis" date="01.08.02" message="hello world"
link="http://www.me.com/";>
</item>
<item>
 <entry number="01" name="travis" date="01.08.02" message="hello world"
link="http://www.me.com/";>
</item>

now it is writing to the file I want perfectly....but but but I need to add
quotes around the attributes and spaces between each attribute, and a line
break before each item
what do I need to add to $Entry to get that to display correctly
