Re: Cleaning up my messy code

Try out smarty (its quite simple). You will get some ideas on how to structure. I learned that its *ok* to have some *display logic* in your templates (i.e. repeating rows). (yes, some will adamantly disagree) Another thing i learned when using smarty is I like using arrays to keep things organized. i.e. $article['id'], $article['title'], $article['publish_date'], $article['author'], $article['content'] rather than $id, $title, $publish_date, $author, $content olinux --- Chris <chrisl_ak@hotmail.com> wrote: > I am working on a fairly large scale (for myself > anyway) project using PHP > and MySQL.
