Hello,
I have a couple of quick questions. When I execute this code on my
php page (I know that the .PSD image isn¹t web ready, but Safari does
what I need it to do :) ) it displays the entire source as one line.
Is there anyway to have it be broken. I have read places (internet
sites) that say that the following solutions might work:
echo OE¹;\n\n
echo OE¹\n\n ;
echo OE\n\n¹;
None of them seem to work, am I doing something wrong?
echo 'meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html;
charset=utf-8'; echo 'html';
echo 'head';
echo 'title';
echo 'FilmCanister Desktops';
echo '/title';
echo '/head';
echo 'body';
echo 'center';
echo 'img src=images/Rotating.psd';
echo 'h2';
echo 'Coming SoonDesktop Pictures (2.83 GB Worth)/h2'; echo
'/center'; echo '/body';
echo '/html';
The reason you have it all on one line is because you haven't echoed any
newlines. You have a number of options to do this. As there is no variable
interpolation anywhere in there, you could just break out of PHP and do it
as straight HTML:
...
?
meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=utf-8
html
head
title
FilmCanister Desktops
/title
/head
body
center
img src=images/Rotating.psd
h2
Coming SoonDesktop Pictures (2.83 GB Worth)/h2
/center
/body
/html
?php
...
Or you could echo the whole thing in one go (since you can have newlines in
a PHP string):
echo 'meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=utf-8
html
head
...
/body
/html
';
If you plan to have variables in there at some point, you can either use
?php echo $var ? segments, or use a heredoc:
echo END
meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=utf-8
html
head
body
center
img src=images/$name.psd
...
/body
/html
END;
or, again, you could use a multi-line string -- but this time double-quoted
to give interpolation (but note that you now have to escape all your
embedded double quotes):
echo
meta http-equiv=\content-type\ content=\text/html; charset=utf-8\
html
head
body
center
img src=\images/$name.psd\
...
/body
/html
;
Which route you choose is pretty much personal taste -- personally, if I
have a page that's mostly straight HTML with not much PHP code, I write it
as HTML with embedded PHP snippets, but I know some people think that looks
weird or ugly...!
Cheers!
