   i didn't say you did but if you expect a browser to properly render the output,   
    it should be in proper html format ;)

   i'm saying that if you want to keep your server's directory layout secret to   
   prevent possible hacking access and fore-knowledge of your setup, do not output   
    the path of the file...

   then why be messing with looking at the output in a browser?   
      
    AA> How would this would be a security risk?   
      
   because it would publish the path to those with possibly nefearious desires...

   Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set   
    them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.
