I'd suggest:


    echo "<table bgcolor='#ffffff'>
    <tr>
    <td bgcolor='eeeeee' width='300'>
    Name : ";

    $name = 'johnny';

    echo "<B>$name</B>
    </td>
    <td bgcolor='#eeeeee' width='300'>
    Title : ";

    $title = 'smith';

    echo"<B>$title</B>
    </td>
    </tr>
    </table>");

This way, the code IS readable, for small-medium size echoing.
