heredoc is probably the best way to go. There's no way you can mess up your quotes, and you don't have to worry about escaping. Altough I wonder what would happen if you put ?> in a heredoc, would it stop processing the php, thinking that it was the end of the php file, or would it just treat it as a string still?

Here's how I'd do it.

<?php
$row= $emp_row->getRecordId();//Or, you can put this inside the heredoc with {}

//heredoc
$str= <<<txt
<form name="edit" method="post" action="emp_edit_result2.php">
<input type="hidden" name="Status" value="Active" />
<input type="hidden" name="The_Date" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="-recid" value="$row" />
<input type="submit" name="edit_submit" value="Activate" />
</form>
txt;

if (!empty($emp_row->getField('testfield')) print $str;
else print "Non Print";
?>

Hello Folks,

I would like to be able to wrap a 'form' inside a php 'if statement' - so
that the form will appear if the 'if condition' is met.

-  most likely I cannot have a <?php tag inside another one - and am sure
I'm doing other things wrong also...
- now I get the error - Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in...

Q:  What is the best way to accomplish this goal?


-----------------------

<?php if ($emp_row->getField('testfield') !="") {
    print "<form name="edit" method="post" action="emp_edit_result2.php">
<input type="hidden" name="Status" value="Active"/>
<input type="hidden" name="The_Date" value=""/>
<input type="hidden" name="-recid" value="<?php echo
$emp_row->getRecordId(); ?>">
<input type="submit" name="edit_submit" value="Activate">
</form>
    ";}else {print "Non Print";} ?>
