You should check, it's a simple error!

$filler3 = "<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">";

Notice how your quotes aren't escaped? The syntax highlighter shows you as well.

If you want to keep them double quotes, wrap your filler text in single quotes like so:

$filler3 = '<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">';

And fixed

i think the fact your using " instead of ' in php code might affect it:

you have

$filler3 = "<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">";

Should be:

$filler3 = "<meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1'>";

note: this is the case when using php all the way through your code so line 5 is returning the LAST part as a comment (hence the orange colour after //)

or you can do what oni-kun said

i think the fact your using " instead of ' in php code might affect it:

You should always use a double quote for HTML attributes.

You can either escape the double quotes or wrap with single quotes.

<?php
$foo = "<link href=\"http://www.google.com\">Google</a>";
$bar = '<link href="http://www.google.com">Google</a>';
?>
