I like that idea too-- I just don't like having to learn what amounts to a third language to do it. Does one have to have a templating engine in order to achieve this? I find reusability to be, largely, a theoretical mantra, templates or not. In general, between applications, so much changes that even the same basic idea means that the most reusable part are SQL queries and such, and I already keep THOSE separate. And I've been looking for good examples of code on the web-- examples that exemplify forethought and reusability. I must be looking in the wrong places :) c -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
