RE: [PHP] "here" document From: Bjorn Sodergren (sweede <email protected>)
Date: 07/14/00

what i'd like to see with the here doc deal, you can do this...

$myvar<<<OPTION
This is a bunch of formated text that can occour often in a program.
using this, instead of $out="blah\t\tblah blah\nblah\tblah\n\n";
would be soo much easier
OPTION;

echo $myvar;
