I think the issue you're running into is the same reason not to compose a script or config file in notepad. Without using a true text editor (vi), or relying on copy and past, you're very likely to introduce non visible formatting characters, as you see with you paragraph symbols. Trusting code right off a webpage isn't going to always be WYSIWYG.
