Moving In/Out of PHP in webpage

[rcmehta_14]

Hi folks,

I am new to PHP. I am developing a PHP page. Now there are many occassion in the page that I am closing the PHP tag('?>') and write some HTML contents and again start tag ('<?').

I feel that writing everything in PHP(HTML contents too) is easy and it gives good control over the page but I am worried about the Web Server Performance. Is it possible that writing the pure HTML contents also in PHP may downsize the performance of executing a webpage on server OR it may take more execution time as compared to the normal way?

Please help me. Thanks.

You really shouldn't see a performance hit. I myself go in and out of php/html in order to clean up code and not have to echo as much out, and I don't see a performce hit.
