Running program in php

php and running programs.

Hi

$targetfile="/etc/hosts"; //specify target file to be written to
$tmpfile="blah.php"; //specifies temp file
$cmd = <<<EOS 
grep -v -e "$recordtodelete" $targetfile > $tmpfile 
cp $tmpfile $targetfile 
EOS; 
exec($cmd); 

Gives me an error with the $cmd>>>EOS line, whats wrong?
