Unfortunately eval() is not what I need. I want the string to be parsed *in HTML mode* [1], just like include() and require() do. The problem is they work with files, while what I have is a variable. I could write the string to a temp file, and then use include(), but that would be kind of slow. It would be done in every page, so it needs to be reasonably fast (my application is already slowed down by the use of XSLT).
