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.
