[ciapug] Re: heredoc

With heredoc I have found that it works this way

                 $webPageContent = <<<HTML
Has to start at the very first column of the next row
                 then it can be formatted in any way you wish???
HTML;

$webPage->addContent($webPageContent);

If it is not formatted correctly, the content inside the heredoc 
wrappers does not appear.
