Thanks!

Hi there, I was trying to modify the code from the tutorial "PHP Basic Database Handling" and the code uses something I haven't seen before, but looks intriguing. Can someone explain how to use this: echo <<<SOMELABEL stuff SOMELABEL; Or let me know why my code didn't work? The error is an unexpected end statement on the last line of the file. My Code: <?php $mystring = $_GET['FirstLast']; if($mystring == "") { echo "You reached this page by mistake, click on the link in your email"; }else { //echo $mystring; // connect to db $conn = mysql_connect('localhost','user','pw') or trigger_error("SQL",E_USER_ERROR); $db = mysql_select_db('tsec',$conn) or trigger_error("SQL",E_USER_ERROR); $sql = "SELECT `First Name`, `Last Name`, `Title`, `Org Parameter 1`, `Org/Person Name`, `Attendee Parm Value 1`, `Attendee Parm Value 2`, `Attendee Parm Value 3`, `Attendee Parm Value 4`, `Attendee Parm Value 5`, `Attendee Parm Value 6`, `Attendee Parm Value 7`, `Attendee Parm Value 8` FROM `attendees` WHERE FirstLast = '$mystring'"; $result = mysql_query($sql,$conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); $list = mysql_fetch_assoc($result); echo <<<LISTNAME <form action = '{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}' method = 'post'> <table border = '1'><tr><td colspan = '2'>{$list['First Name']} {$list['Last Name']}</td></tr> <tr><td>Title</td><td><input type = 'text' name = 'Title' value = {$list['Title']}</td></tr> </table></form> LISTNAME; mysql_close($conn); } ?> Thanks.
