    can you use html as value for php variable

    Is there a way to use html as a value for a php variable while going
    in and out of the php tag?

    For example, can you do something like this?

    <?php $strHtml = ?>
    <p>somehtml here</p>
    <?php ; ?>

    so that the value of $strHtml equals "<p>somehtm l here</p>"

      Don't forget to end the line with a semicolon.

          AFAIK, no. Which a simple test would show.
          Heredoc saves a lot of escaping quotes though, if that's your problem:


          $strHTML = <<<HTML
          <p>someHtml here, where we dont have to worry about escaping ' and ", so
          that'll just go fine. Hell, we can even use variables:
          {$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']}. The only thing that should be escaped here is
          are valid variable names, so $names should be \$names.
          HTML;
