This would look something like: <?php $todayDate = date("m-d-Y"); ?> <title>Freedomware &gt; <?php echo $myname ?></title> <meta name="description" content="<?php echo $myname ?> versus Microsoft" /> <meta name="keywords" content="<?php echo $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="<?php echo $periods ?>js/swapclass.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script language="JavaScript" src="<?php echo $periods ?>js/sort.js"></script>' <script language="JavaScript" src="<?php echo $periods ?>js/ss.js"></script> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript"> <!-- function MM_openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) { //v2.0 window.open(theURL,winName,features); } //--> </script> <link href="<?php echo $periods ?>css/ref.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> <?php if($includea1){ ?> <link href="<?php echo $periods ?>css/<?php echo $continentcode ?>/a1.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <?php } ?> <link href="<?php echo $mycss ?>.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> echo '<link href="' . $periods . etc. etc. By the way, the test if($includea1 == TRUE) should be written as just if($includea1) It has exactly the same outcome, but is both more readable (if you've named your variables suitably) and more efficient (since you've saved the redundant comparison operation).
