Re: [PHP] Whats more efficient? ( echo " "; or )

[Jordan S. Jones]

I believe I read someplace once that it is more efficient to have your 
php embedded in your HTML where required. Something to do with the 
amount of parsing that the engine has to do.  However, to reiterate what 
Captain John W. Holmes said, using a templating engine does allow you to 
better manage the project especially in dealing with maintenance down 
the road.  I personally prefer to let the business logic create XML and 
employ XSLT to do my Html rendering.  It may not be the quickest or most 
memory efficient, but, in my humble opinion, it is one of the easiest to 
maintain.

Hi everyone,
Just a simple doubt and basically your opinion needed.
I have an option box on a webpage and have around 10 options on it and have
run into a doubt,
which is more efficient to do:
1.
<option value="1"<?php if($th_order==1){echo " SELECTED"; }
?>>Something1</option>
<option value="2"<?php if($th_order==2){echo " SELECTED"; }
?>>Something2</option>
(or)

2.
instead of having the <?php and ?> mixed in the  HTML is it better to
echo/print the whole lines?
Thanks,
-Ryan
