My first thought was that one is spelled 'print' the other is
spelled 'echo', but it turns out that is not quite right. You can read
about it here:
www.php.net/manual/function.echo.html
www.php.net/manual/function.print.html
It is a good thing I did. The difference is that echo will take more
than one parameter like this:
echo "One ", "Two ", "Three"; // returns: One Two Three
With print that is a syntax error, only one thing to print is allowed.
print "One";
