html and php

Anon

I need to create if/else statements that contains gobs of html within each. I'd rather not write all the print statements around the html. How do I split my php tags to contain the html?

for example:
<?php
if exists($variable){
print "
}
?>
gobs of html
<?php
";
?>
else...

Is this even possible?

Thanks in advance.

Do exactly what you posted, except skip the print() bit:

<?
if exists($variable){
  ?>
    gobs of html
  <?
} else { ... }
?>

And if you want to drop a variable or expression inside the gobs of html, just use <?= ?> or <? ?>.
