If your a PHP developer, and you don’t know about it yet, check out vLIB. I’ve worked quite a bit with templating for a few years now. I think this is the best library for implementing templates in a PHP application I’ve seen. It’s got a good amount of flexibility, and it’s easy to implement. Not to mention is’s nice and fast.
I’ve written several very crummy templating systems for my own stuff over the years. And they stink compared to this. Honestly. I’ve decided to throw them out and port over to vLIB.
I hate php Apps with HTML all over. Eventually they are doomed to become impossible to maintain. At least with templating, it’s easy.

I’ve really had it with the diversity in template systems. Nowadays, I just use XSLT. Big plus: it’s STANDARDIZED. Also, it’s fast and using it enforces separation of content and markup.
