Question

i have the following code with variable and text inisde for sending a form. My problem is that I cant figure out how to execute php inside that text, for example foreach function.

$somearray;

$variable = <<<END

Hello world foreach($somearray as $v){echo $v} //this does not work of course in my case.

END;

you help would very much appreciated.
thank you

Answer 1

the <<<END & END; are synonymous with using quotations marks, just less the use of \" 100 times. You can’t execute code within a string, you’ll need to concatenate the results instead.

What you’re trying to do is basically this:

$variable = "foreach($somearray as $v) echo $v;";

When really you most likely want this:

$variable = "";
foreach ($somearray as $v) $variable .= $v;
