Syntax Help

I'm trying to make a form that edits a php file which contains config settings.  I'm using strings that are defined by the user form inputs.  This is what my file should look like when the form is process(or something like it)

 

<?php

$config['site_url'] = "http://localhost/sideeffect";

$config['site_name'] = "asdfasdf";
$config['site_motto'] = "A community of gamers";
$config['img_dir'] = $config['site_url']."/images";
$config['style_dir'] = $config['site_url']."/css";
$config['js_dir'] = $config['site_url']."/javascript";
$config['enable_comments'] = FALSE;
$config['enable_points'] = TRUE;	
$config['enable_ratings'] = FALSE;
$config['maintenance_mode'] = TRUE;			

?>

 

This is the bit that produces what should be written to the file:

$data = "<?php\n\n

			$config[\'site_name\'] = \"".$info['site_name']."\";\n  [b]//Line that the error occurs on[/b]
			$config[\'site_motto\'] = \"".$info["site_motto"]."\";\n
			$config[\'img_dir\'] = \"".$info["img_dir"]."\";\n
			$config[\'style_dir\'] = \"".$info["style_dir"]."\";\n
			$config[\'js_dir\'] = \"".$info["js_dir"]."\";\n
			$config[\'enable_comments\'] = \"".$comments."\";\n
			$config[\'enable_points\'] = \"".$points."\";\n
			$config[\'enable_ratings\'] = \"".$ratings."\";\n
			$config[\'maintenance_mode\'] = \"".$maintenance."\";\n\n

			?>";

 

This is the error that I'm getting:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in C:\xampp\htdocs\sideeffect\system\application\models\admin\settings.php on line 4

 

Thanks for your help.

$data = "<?php\n\n";

foreach($info as $name => $value)
{
    $data .= "\$config['{$name}'] = \"{$value}\";\n";
}
$data .= "\$config['enable_comments'] = {$comments};\n";
$data .= "\$config['enable_points'] = {$points};\n";
$data .= "\$config['enable_ratings'] = {$ratings};\n";
$data .= "\$config['maintenance_mode'] = {$maintenance};\n";

$data .= "\n\n?>";
