I dont think this syntax is particularly intuative and would lead to a lot of very ugly code. Remember you only ever write the code once but you are likley to read it many times (fixing bugs etc) so you are better off spending a bit more time writing it and making it easier to understand. Many thanks for your thoughts, - James Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-24 15:39:47] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello, First of all, I would like to say (as hundreds of people says to you each day) that you're all doing a GREAT JOB ! I feel kinda stupid to ask you to consider this feature request, so please consider this as the only thing PHP should include to make my little person very very happy :)) Here's the point : When dealing html which is not mine but generated by a graphist who use dreamweaver or something, I spent a lot of time (and I think lot of people too) quoting, cleaning, line breaking html code. This happens for parts of code which have to be repeated and have to contains output of variables and functions. Then I discovered while reading the doc :) that php has perl- like HEREDOC mode. It sound cool ! I'm using this mode a lot, but when I want to output the result of a function, i'm forced to go out of the heredoc mode, or set a variable with the result of the function before using heredoc mode, and I think the code is getting ugly when doing this. I think the heredoc mode would be very very cool if it was python like. I should use something like that. echo """ Some html lines, $var $var2 more html more $vars """ . function_output() . """ more html ..."""; This would be very cool. But php is already very very cool !! Again, thanks you all for keeping this great job !! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19582&edit=1
