A more efficient solution?

Anon

Hi guys,
I use sunctions to display some rather large forms as part of a program, a bit like this

if($SomeCondition) {
 PrintFormOne();
} else { PrintFormTwo();

Now the forms contain vars as values so currently i write the functions a bit like this;

function PrintFormOne() {
 global $val1, $val2, $etc;
 $form="<form action=\"$PHP_SELF\" method=POST>\n";
 $form.="<input type=text value=$val1>\n";
 $form.="etc etc etc<br>\n";
 $form.="</form>\n";
 return $form;
}

Surely theres a better way than all that $form.='s rubbish?

Much thanks folks

Nick

function PrintFormOne() {
global $val1, $val2, $etc;
$form="<form action=\"$PHP_SELF\" method=POST>\n".
"<input type=text value=$val1>\n".
"etc etc etc<br>\n".
"</form>\n";
return $form;
}

function PrintFormOne() {
global $val1, $val2, $etc;
$form = "
<form action=\"$PHP_SELF\" method=POST>
<input type=text value=$val1>
etc etc etc<br>
</form>\n";

return $form;
}

This should also work...

I didn't think yo could braek the var declarations across new lines?

I'll give it a go, thanks guys!
