I get the compile error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_START_HEREDOC in ....at line 54.

line 54 is the line after: $detail<<<eoxd

I can't see an error.

Think of heredoc as alternative quotes

What would the error be in:
$detail 'foo';

yup, just needed the = sign.

Thanks all - I have been looking at this code too long !
