    I am helping admin a website that is a part of the WoW gaming community. The newest idea is to have rotating header images based on the date, that line up with the ongoing in-game event. I have written the php needed to find the date and echo the location of the image, but I am having a problem replacing the current theme’s code for the header. When I do replace it, I get a syntax error and just don’t understand. Here’s what it looks like before, if someone can give me an idea on what I need to replace or change I would appreciate the help.

    header.php
