One thing to consider for your 3rd idea is that if you have to pass the project off to someone else, the other two methods require the new person to understand your logic and why you split things up into multiple files. This could lead to frustration on their part if they don't fully understand what is happening on the web page. Frustration may lead to venting. Venting may lead to you getting a bad rap for using either method 1 or method 2 after you are no longer associated with the project. The negative connotation with the work you leave behind is very powerful and can bite you when you don't expect it.
That said, I would choose method 3. Everything is together that controls the .posts style so I don't have to go looking elsewhere. I think it is the best way to do it.
