Intro to PHP question

Hi all, I am using a linux server. When the php file below (uri.php) is run from the command line I get the following error. Any ideas on what I could do differently? Thanks for any help, Jonathan ../uri.php: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' ../uri.php: line 1: `<html>' <html> <body><?php $d=date("D"); if ($d=="Fri") echo "Have a nice weekend!"; else echo "Have a nice day!"; ?></body> </html> Kind Regards Jonathan Kahan -------------------------------------------------------------------- Systems Developer Estrin Technologies, inc. 1375 Broadway, 3rd Floor, New York, NY, 10018 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Email: jonathan@estrintech.com Web: http://www.estrintech.com
