Помимо механизма шаблонов

Исходный код класса шаблона

И, наконец, класс Template.

Еще одна важная вещь, которую стоит отметить в представленном здесь решении, это то, что мы передаем имя файла шаблона в вызов метода fetch() . Это может быть полезно, если вы хотите повторно использовать объекты шаблона без необходимости re-set() всех переменных.

И помните: смысл движков шаблонов должен заключаться в том, чтобы отделить вашу бизнес-логику от логики представления, а не отделять ваш PHP-код от вашего HTML-кода.
