    text
    copied!<p>Normally I am developing website and coding <code>PHP</code> and <code>HTML</code> something like this - </p> <pre><code>while (mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt)) { // Create Table Body $html .= "&lt;tr&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;td&gt;$title&lt;/td&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;td&gt;$date&lt;/td&gt;"; $html .= " &lt;td align='center'&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;a href='#'&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;span class='view' title='View This Comment'&gt;&lt;/span&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;/a&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;/td&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;td class='td_catchall' align='center'&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;a href='#'&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;span class='edit' title='Edit This Comment'&gt;&lt;/span&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;/a&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;/td&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;td align='center'&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;a href='#'&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;span class='delete' title='Delete This Comment'&gt;&lt;/span&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;/a&gt;\n"; $html .= " &lt;/td&gt;\n"; $html .= "&lt;/tr&gt;\n"; } //Create View Blog Dialog Box $viewBlog = "&lt;div id='dialog-view'&gt;\n"; $viewBlog .= " &lt;h2&gt;$title&lt;/h2&gt;\n"; $viewBlog .= " &lt;p&gt;$date&lt;/p&gt;\n"; $viewBlog .= " &lt;p&gt;"; $viewBlog .= " &lt;img src='".UPLOAD_DIR.$userName."/".$image."' /&gt;"; $viewBlog .= " $comment&lt;/p&gt;"; $viewBlog .= "&lt;/div&gt;\n"; </code></pre> <p>But recently I came across to know one of my friend, that is a bad practice of saving the HTML in a PHP variable. And also said I need to separate logic from presentation. </p> <p>If it is true, can anybody tell me how can I do it? </p> <p>Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. </p>
