Problem with Include

[Bill Guion <bguion@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

In an effort to clean up some code, I tried taking four lines out of 
6 or 7 programs and putting them into an include file. The file 
structure is

Root
  data
    clubs.php
  include
    fmt.inc

Originally, clubs.php had the following code:

<?PHP
$file_name= basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
$last_modified = filemtime($file_name);
print("This page last modified ");
print(date("m/j/y", $last_modified));

?>

This code works - on the web page I get

This page last modified 12/18/2010

which is correct.

So then I did the following:
Create an include file, fmt.inc with the following code:

$file_name= basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
$last_modified = filemtime($file_name);
print("This page last modified ");
print(date("m/j/y", $last_modified));

and then in the original file, I have

<?PHP
include "../include/fmt.inc";
?>

On my web page, I then get

$file_name= basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);$last_modified = 
filemtime($file_name);print("This page last modified "); 
print(date("m/j/y", $last_modified));

(all on one line).

I would really like to understand why the include construct doesn't 
give the same results as the original?
