No, evidently you can't read. For if you could, you would have noticed that
indenting heredoc inevitably shifts the delimiter right from the first
column, which creates a *syntax error*; so with heredoc you have to take
extra care that you do not indent that line, which makes maintenance harder.
You also have to take extra care then that the character following the
delimiter is at most one `;'; for example, concatenation is only possible
with the dot at the *next* line. All of that jumping through hoops for
gaining program *inefficiency* is unnecessary if one uses the natural,
efficient way of PHP coding with multiple PHP sections in the first place
(with the alternative syntax if you prefer that).
And if you could also think clearly, you would have interpreted "client-side
validate" as a validation *before* the PHP source code is deployed on the
production server, in the source code editor, and not misconstrued it as
validation in the browser (which is not even possible in all browsers).
Nuff said.

root of the knowledge tree you build on a particular subject, pruning the
bad branches can sometimes cause the whole tree to collapse.
