Weird. The following gives me a parse error, not the literal text:

<?
echo <<< FOO

$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']

FOO;
?>

...but, this displays the contents of $PHP_SELF:

<?
echo <<< FOO

{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}

FOO;
?>

Aside from personal preference, is there a compelling reason to kick
back out to HTML, as Hans suggests?
