Rails - Aug 2006 - Here Document format in Views.

I was wondering how I could use the Here document format in a view.

Say something like this:

<% @to_header = <<EOF
...
EOF %>

But that does not work, giving me a syntax error.  Any help on this 
would be great!

The terminating string is sensitive to trailing whitespace.  Try:

<% @to_header = <<EOF
...
EOF
%>

And make sure you have no spaces or tabs after the EOF
