Just because software is poorly designed, doesn't mean to say the language <br>
is crap. I've seen plenty of poorly written Delphi code, parts of the VCL
<br>
included, and we all know <st1:place w:st="on">Delphi</st1:place> is far from
crap. osCommerce IS the <br>
abomination, not PHP.<br>
<br>
Just like in ASP / JSP, embedding HTML is only an option. You don't have
to <br>
use it. Personally, I generate all my HTML through XSLT. All my
code needs <br>
to do is create the right XML data structure and the presentation is all in <br>
XSLT.<br>
