Thanks to those that taught me to use heredoc to embed html in  
php.  I don't want to start the html in php vs php in html  
discussion again., 
 
heredoc works a treat for that which I am doing except: 
    In the generated html I have a number of checkboxes.  I fill  
in the checkboxes from a boolean value in a mySQL table.  To make  
this easier I use a function that takes the boolean and return  
either 'checked' or ''.  This worked well when I was  
concatenating the html into a variable rather than using heredoc,  
but it was really messy. 
 
Short, simple question:  is there anyway to get php to evaluate a  
function while in a heredoc block ? 
 
I know I could assign the results of using the function to  
variables outside of the heredoc block or I could break the block  
for the function, but the first is cumbersome and the second gets  
rid of the clarity of the heredoc approach.
