Re: Re: better way to mix html and php code?

I wouldn't pick any of those approaches.

We did a quick POC for a site using approach #1.
Unfortunately, that POC code has lived to go into production.

Now, we are looking into some sort of framework that would allow us to
separatate of PHP code and HTML -- as much as possible. (Looking into Smarty
right now.) Haven't finalized the approach/framework yet. Any suggestions
would be welcomed.

Thanks.
