Sometime ago I wrote an application in php.  Shortly thereafter it was 
decided that some of the reports should be emailed to users on a regular 
basis (a good job from cron).  The server wasn't configured to run php from 
command line, so I used "lynx -source" to get the report out of application 
and "attach" to an email message.  Because I wanted some info from database 
in the subject line, it was easier to modify the php scripts to supply 
everything I needed (mail headers, mime headers) so that I could simply 
pipe the lynx output to sendmail with:
	lynx -source http://domain.com/report.php?id=22 | sendmail -i -t
But the version of php on my recently upgraded server includes a blank line 
at the beginning of file that wasn't there in old version and sendmail is 
now complaining.  I know the problem isn't with lynx because running my 
script from old server to retrieve php report from new server also fails.

Is there an existing command I can use to strip off that first line?
