    <p>This produces output page OK</p> <pre><code>$mystring = "&lt;&lt;&lt;EOT"; </code></pre> <p>Replacing it with the following produces</p> <blockquote> <p>Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in file.php on line 737</p> </blockquote> <pre><code>$mystring = &lt;&lt;&lt;EOT This is some PHP text. It is completely free I can use "double quotes" and 'single quotes', plus $variables too, which will be properly converted to their values, you can even type EOT, as long as it is not alone on a line, like this: EOT; </code></pre> <p>Any ideas as to what is causing the parser to choke?</p> <p>I'm using PHP 4.4.7.</p> <p>It is only on one file that this behaviour happens all others follow the PHP defined functionality.</p> <p>What I am trying to recitify is what could be possibly wrong in the proceding lines so that the PHP parser shows in this failure.</p> <p>John</p> <p>changed file contents to :-</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $mystring = &lt;&lt;&lt;WHATEVER This is some PHP text. WHATEVER; ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>result =</p> <p>Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in file.php on line 5</p> <p>Any clues</p> <p>EDIT</p> <p>original error was to do with <code>T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE</code> this can be caused with jQuery for example "<code>if(x == y){$('#my_image').hide():}</code>" is within the heredoc the bigram "{$ will start the parser looking for php variable for substitution.</p> <p>EDIT</p> <p>2 good responses.</p> <p>1) Ch4m3l3on - "<code>&lt;?php</code>" vs "<code>&lt;?</code>" handling. </p> <p>2) The Disintegrator - <code>&lt;q&gt;</code>had a similar problem with a stupid program that insisted in putting the BOM in a utf-8 file (ignoring preferences)<code>&lt;/q&gt;</code>.</p> <p>EDIT</p> <p>1) Replacing all content with a single block didn't fix the problem or give any other pointers.</p> <p>2) No BOM (Byte Order Mark), pity as this or similar majic characters would have explained all symptoms perfectly.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
