Answer 1

if you are echoing php directly into html i like to do this

much shorter than writing the whole thing out (php echo blah blah)

if you are writing html in php directly then there several options

$var = '
'.$variable.'
';   // concatenate the string
$var = "
$variable
";       // let php parse it for you.  requires double quotes
$var = "
{$variable}
";     // separate variable with curly braces, also requires double quotes
