Question

I am having this loop

foreach ($unserialized as $key => $value) {
 $foo = <<<EOT
<div class='krudItem' id='xxx'><form class='aj' name='itemForm' method='post'
 action=''><section><label>Slider Title</label><input type='hidden'
 name='sliderKey' value=$key/><input type='text' name='sliderTitle' value='$value 
 ['slidertitle']'/></section><section> <label>Slider Location</label>
 <input type='text' 
 name=$value['sliderlocation']value='ipsum'/></section><section><label>Slider 
 Description</label><textarea name='sliderDescription'>$value
 ['sliderdescription']</textarea></section><button name='saveNew' class='saveNew' 
 value='save'>save</button><button name='newCancel' value='cancel' 
 class='deleteNew'>cancel</button></form></div>
EOT;
echo $foo;

but everytime i run it,i get

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ” (T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE),

I have been reading what php says about https://www.php.net/tokens and i have tried every other possible solution but the error persists.There are some white spaces but i am not sure how i would deal with them well.

Answer 1

You need to enclose your variables in curly braces:

$str = <<<EOF
some string with {$some['variables']} in it
EOF;

You can put any PHP expression in {...} as long as it starts with a $.

See the documentation on this syntax at php.net.
