Umm just for general knowledge, whats the difference between HEREDOC to
simple "<value>" assignment?
As far as i know they both do the same job except that HEREDOC have problems
with tabs infront of it (at the first line). Ther are other distinctions?
HEREDOC syntax has no problems with tabs anywhere except the
termination mark. For example:
<?php
$text =<<<EOT
I can have tabs here, no problem.
EOT; // I can't have a tab before this terminator though.
?>
About the only *real* problem you'll face with HEREDOC vs.
multiline quotes is using name-keyed arrays and superglobals. For
example, you can use $foo[0], but you can't use $foo['bar'] or
$_SESSION['foobar'].
