Use a framework like MVC.  Your PHP code would be seperate from your
design templates.  Smarty is a heavy-weight for templating.  I use

Sounds like a CMS.  I use this web based HTML editor when I need to
let designers play in my projects:

You might look into Apache's mod_rewrite to help clean those URLs up. 
Search engines love nice clean URLs if that sort of thing matters to
you.
