I am > not sure about this? I wouldn't say it was clean to split everything out into separate files. I tend to do something more like: <? include 'logic.php' ?> <HTML> tags tags tags <? my_func() ?> More tags <? another_func() ?> More tags <? footer() ?> ie. don't necessarily use 1 file per block, create functions that are defined in a single file and call those instead of including a new file. If you really do want to separate it, have a look at a cacheing templating system like Smarty which lets you keep this per-file separation but it caches the combined logic. http://www.phpinsider.com/php/code/Smarty/ -Rasmus
