So I'm writing this page (PHP Newbie here) and it checks to see if a var is set, if it isn't it spits out the form info like so: echo "<form action="myform.php" method="post">"; Now is there a way to 'wrap' that so I don't have to escape quotes? Something like perls 'qq' function is what I'm looking for. I tried a few different functions from the website, magic_quotes, addslashes, htmlspecial etc etc but none did what I was looking for You know you can switch the php parser on and off like so:

<?php if (isset($var)) { ?> <form action="myform.php" method="post"> <?php } ?> which is a bit more efficient and better than all those echo statements and escapes? -- http://www.web-buddha.co.uk dynamic web programming from Reigate, Surrey UK (php, mysql, xhtml, css) look out for project karma, our new venture, coming soon!
