You call _that_ maintainable and readable? IBTD.
You jump in and out from PHP and even use two different indentation
styles. That's just plain ugly and error-prone, since you don't really
see which parts belong together and where a block starts and ends.
If you don't want to use many 'echo' or 'print' statements (even though
it would make perfect sense in situations like this), use some template
mechanism.
