Separating code and design is good, but keeping each on only one file will cause more troubles that it's worth. I keep all my design in one directory, as several files, each a snippet of HTML (usually with some <?= $SomeVar ?> statements embedded): misc_hitcounter_g.html misc_hitcounter_s.html page_footer-titel.html page_footer.html page_header-titel.html page_header.html page_toc-linkmarked.html page_toc-linkstd.html page_toc.html mail_subscribe-failure.html mail_unsubscribe-failure.html mail_subscribe-success.html mail_unsubscribe-success.html news_item-std.html news_item-std.html for example looks like this (it's a german site): <tr valign="top"> <td colspan="2" height="2"><img src="/images/transparent.gif" width="1" height="1"></td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td> <p class="bb"><?= $PTime ?></p> </td> <td> <p class="bb"><?= $Title ?></p> </td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <?php if ($Usermode == 'maint') { ?> <td><a href='/maintain.php?what=news&amp;id=<?= $ID ?>&amp;action=edit' class='inbody'>Bearbeiten</a></td> <?php } else { ?> <td>&nbsp;</td> <?php } ?> <td><?= $Body ?></td> </tr> Such an approach is IMHO easy to understand and handle, well-structured etc. -- Christian Reiniger LGDC Webmaster (http://sunsite.dk/lgdc/) Pretty cool, the kind of power information technology puts in our hands these days. - Securityfocus on probing 36000000 hosts for known problems in 3 weeks
