For the people in the audience who are interested in accuracy, note that XML allows attribute values to be quoted either with double quotes or single quotes. Here's the formal lexical definition[1]:
Yes, it allows that, but not both in the same document.
I think you should familiarize yourself with [[Backus-Naur_form]] before further study of the snippet below. Note the | character.
AttValue ::= '"' ([^<&"] | Reference)* '"' | "'" ([^<&'] | Reference)* "'"
Since strings in PHP source code are themselves usually either single or double-quoted, instances of the same quote character within the string must be escaped with a backslash to appear as a literal character.
You can use heredoc syntax.
Personally I can think of several more worthwhile things to do.
