You don't say what is going wrong, but I suspect your problem is that 
you're not printing matrix.merge2.  Listing a variable name on a line by 
itself only causes it to be printed when you're typing at the console, 
not when it's a line in a function or a line sourced from a file.  You 
need to call print() explicitly in those cases.

I don't know what is causing your problem,  But if you goal is to
produce html then you may want to look at the R2HTML package.  It may do
what you want without using sink.

Hope this helps,
