Re: [PHP] Why are my style sheets all listed on one line?

I'm still fairly new to PHP, so there may be a simple fix for my 
relatively trivial complaint.

I'm using an included page as a head section. It works fine, except 
that when preview a page and view the source, all the style sheets are 
displayed on one looooong line, like this:

It sounds like you have figured out the problem, however I thought I 
would share another method that I like to use in similar situations.

<?php
$todayDate = date("m-d-Y");
print<<<END
<title>Freedomware &gt; $myname </title>
<meta name="description" content=" $myname versus Microsoft" />
<meta name="keywords" content=" $myname versus Microsoft" />
<meta name="mssmarttagspreventparsing" content="true" />
<meta http-equiv="content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<meta name="author" content="David Blomstrom" />
<script src=" $periods js/swapclass.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" src=" $periods js/sort.js"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" src=" $periods js/ss.js"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
END;
?>
there is one pit fall on this method that I run into sometimes.  If your 
code is indented like it should be that moves the "END;" away from the 
beginning of the line and it won't work.  So this wouldn't work,

while(for a while){
   if(this){
       do stuff;
       print<<<END
       bunch of stuff here
       END;
       do more stuff;
   }
   end of while
}
The "END;" must be the first text on the line, so it has to be like this,
while(for a while){
   if(this){
       do stuff;
       print<<<END
       bunch of stuff here
END;
       do more stuff;
   }
   end of while
}
