Technically speaking, page2 is a > template engine of a kind, so you're already using one. To build on Ash's remarks, I'd say don't over-engineer and complicate your application. HTML5 is dead easy to write directly -- unless you think your application is going to need to generate different flavours of (X)HTML, it may not be worth going the full-programmatic route like Page2 does. Internationalization is a pretty complex thing in and of itself (language preference detection, message catalog management, localized formatting, etc) that to also make the other parts of the presentation that complex are probably not where you want to spend your time. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
