Here's how I'd do it.

<?php
$row= $emp_row->getRecordId();//Or, you can put this inside the heredoc with {}

//heredoc
$str= <<<txt
<form name="edit" method="post" action="emp_edit_result2.php">
<input type="hidden" name="Status" value="Active" />
<input type="hidden" name="The_Date" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="-recid" value="$row" />
<input type="submit" name="edit_submit" value="Activate" />
</form>
txt;

if (!empty($emp_row->getField('testfield')) print $str;
else print "Non Print";
?>
