The reason it is written this way is that the dsssl that transforms docbook to html has this (annoying) habit of making tags look like this <PRE CLASS="php"> </PRE
it does it for the simple reason that it can be sure that a linebreak at this point (before the closing '>' in a tag) does not change the meaning of the genearated HTML (or XML) and as the code is auto-generated and not meant to be edited anyway it does not matter that it is hardly human-readable but important to prevent extra long lines to avoid potential buffer overflows ... -- Hartmut Holzgraefe <hartmut@php.net>
