I'm not sure if what you are saying includes this, but I use double 
quotes all the time in php for producing html. For example:

[1] echo("$myResult <br/>");
[2] echo('<a href="mydomain.com/mywidget.php" >$myResult</a>');

The use of double quotes in [1] allows me to print something without 
having to use the dot operator.

The use of the single quotes in [2] allows me to use the double 
quotes in html without having to escape them.

Note in both usages, the variable $myResult was used without regard to quotes.

Cheers,
