When >you look at it, that's kind of a problem, though... for instance -snip- You can mix html and php more effectively and with better clarity than that. Two things you should consider: 1. Effective use of includes. Please review and learn from this demo: http://sperling.com/examples/include-demo/ 2. Isolated use of echo()'s. I only mix html and php when it is necessary to inject values created by a php/mysql process. To show these values I typically use this format: <?php echo($whatever); ?> within html -- for example: <h1><?php echo($title);?></h1> As such, all my code (html, css, php, mysql, javascript) is not complex, nor unreadable, and is easily maintainable.
