There are a number of different ways of doing this, and I think your choice> PHP and HTML ?
really depends on how you would like to do it. My personal favourite is not
to include any HTML at all and just create PHP variables that contain my
HTML. Then at teh end of teh document I just use echo $output; This wouldn't
work so well in cases where you want to flush the output back to the user as
the script is being processed, but for short scripts this works well for me.

All the previous comments are On Target.
Another point:
It Depends.
If you control the server, that's One Thing.
How-some-ever, on one server site where I `manipulate` some
web pages, .phtml and/or .shtml do not work for embedded
<$php tags. I have no recourse but to bundle each target
page up in a .php.

wholeheartedly. However, it says somewhere on the PHP site (though I
don't have time to look right now to cite my source) that escaping into
HTML (or, out of PHP, depending on your perspective) to print static
text is actually faster than echoing it.

echo. However, if it were only a few, then you could do:
<?
$variable = "value";
?>
<html><head></head><body>
<b><?= $variable ?></b>
</body></html>

this form with all the algorithm stuff at the top of the page before
the <head>. I then just drop in small bits of PHP in the HTML.
Using PHP to echo complex HTML is painful as you end up escaping all
the " and having 50 lines of $html .= "" is time consuming and the
layout is more fixed. If you stick to HTML you can still edit the
layout with Dreamweaver and I even use PHP to show/hide blocks of
HTML, i.e
<?
if ($displaythis) {
?>
<table ...
.... <td><?=$message?></td>
</table>
<?
} else {
?>
<table ...
.... <td><?=$message?></td>
</table>
<?
}
?>
This makes the whole process so much easier and seems to be the best
balance of HTML editability (with Dreamweaver) and power of PHP.

style. I usually have my main pages as pure php control structures that
include various html files for outputing the data. This means that you
can open up both files in something like dreamweaver and edit them
independantly. Depends on the site, depends on your style.

I do this too - the designers here use Dreamweaver and so I code my>If you stick to HTML you can still edit the layout with Dreamweaver and

I use CSS for layout which keeps the HTML simple and therefore my PHP,>If you stick to HTML you can still edit the
