Just as a quick FYI, you can't put ANY variable in a dochere.  The same 
limitations apply to it as to double quoted strings (" not ').  Arrays 
will give you problems.  Like:

echo <<<MYECHO
<span style="$_SESSION['style']">test</span>
This does not work.
MYECHO;


However, all you have to do is wrap your variables in {} and they work fine:

echo <<<MYECHO
<span style="{$_SESSION['style']}">test</span>
This does work.
MYECHO;


I'd also like to take this time to add that I think it'd be REALLY nice 
to have quanta do auto-completion, etc inside a heredoc.  Basically 
treating it like regular HTML/XHTML.

It's not a huge problem though, because I just make everything OUTSIDE 
of my php (often in another doc called temp.html or something), and then 
copy/paste it into the heredoc.
