Why learn a template language when you can just concentrate on PHP? Also you can easily become dependable on a third party template system which needs to be upgraded. You never know when such an upgrade is necessary for your system and when it might break something. I always use homemade template systems and try to keep things very simple. If designers are working on the project as well they almost always benefit from a little insight into PHP rather than having to learn some template language they can't use for anything else. IMHO - If you have to jump in and out of HTML and template syntax you might as well jump in and out of HTML and PHP. --- Mange venlige hilsner/Best regards Kim N.
