There are several things you could do: (i) Insert a backslash in front of every double quote; I don't recommend this, as you're bound to miss one and it's very ugly to read. (ii) Enclose it in single quotes instead; this is good as it prevents nearly all interpolation/escaping, but it has the disadvantage that you then have to backslash any single quotes. (iii) Use a Heredoc http://php.net/heredoc; this avoids the need to backslash internal double quotes, but might be a problem if your text ever contains $ signs as it does variable interpolation. (iv) If you are on PHP 5.3, use a Nowdoc http://php.net/nowdoc. Whatever option you choose, you will always have to backslash-escape any backslashes; on a quick scan, I can't see any in that text block, but it's best to be aware ;) Cheers!
