In PHP, both of the following are valid strings, because strings can span one or more lines:

"This is a string"

and

"This is
a string"

In the first case, syntax hilighting works properly, but in the second case it does not (it is waiting for a closing quotation mark or apostrophe on the same line to define it as a string).
