Dear PHPers. I have tried to get the "Here Document" functionality to work, all to no avail. I am writing the following code: $body = <<<EOQ ....Lots of HTML stuff here Lines and Lines and lines of it. .... all the way to EOQ; I get a parse error on the first line where I declare the variable. I have tried it in several different ways, such as $body= <<<EOQ But I get parser errors every time. My PHP version is 4.0.2 Anyone know when Here Documents were first implemented in PHP (version number)? Do I need to set GPC or magic-quotes to a certain value at runtime for this to work? I could not find "here document" even MENTIONED on the entire php site. Nor could I find it in the mailing list archives. I did find out about it at the Zend tutorial on strings, and have seen it in a script at px.sklar.
