[FX.php List] PHP echo breaks CSS

In practice, the CSS does get whacked in these circumstances (at least  
in Firefox). The work-around seems simple though - avoid echo-ing from  
PHP outside the confines of the html page. The only time I've seen  
this is when errors happen that are reported before the page is drawn.  
The solution is to fix what's causing the errors.
