Barry, Either will work, but I would guess that one will work quicker than the other. I depends a little on how how much you are doing between the php tags. I will add this comment:
When the web server goes from html to php, it changes context to call the script engine. This change takes time. If your server is not heavily loaded, the amount of time may not be significant. "A" might provide better performance as it switches context only once. "B" might be easier to maintain as it will 'look' more like html to the programmer.
