You can't put any php statements inside of the <<EOT.  It's a template that will be evaluated as html.  Look at the rest of the template statements - see the stuff in the curly brackets {AAAA}?  Those are variable placeholders where php variables will be put.  If you look thru the classic.php file you will see those variables set inside of a huge array.  You need to do all the php stuff somewhere else, then put the variables inside of the array.

If you study the code for a while you should figure it out.

If you're trying to add just a link, why don't you just find

Code Select Expand

// HTML template for main menu
$template_main_menu = <<<EOT
                <span class="topmenu">in theme.php and add after it

Code Select Expand

<a href="yourpage.htm" title="your tooltip"><img src="yourimage.gif" border="0" alt="" /></a>
What is the code you're trying to insert meant to do?
