I never work with PHP from the commandline,. but i think it is not possible
to use HTML in a php file, so try replacing this:
<html>
<body><?php
with
<?php
echo "<html><body>";
and replace this:
?></body>
</html>
with this:
echo "</body></html>";
?>
I think that will fix it.

Unfortunately not. I used the vi editor within Linux to create the file.
I am using a windows machine locally but the server I am doing this all in
is a Linux server which I am accessing through putty.

Your probably created it from a windows machine. Try converting the file
first with dos2unix
dos2unix ../uri.php
