You can handle the HTML-output from within any functions. What I am doing
normally is the following.
I got one page, let's say main.php
When calling this page I pass it a variable that tells main.php
which function to execute ("printForm", "submitForm", "changeDB" etc.)
This is done by a simple switch-cascade.
Now I'm organizing my functions properly in different include-files,
let's say "displayFuncs.php", "dbFuncs.php" etc..
And IMHO anything is much more clean and relaxed like this ;)
On the other hand, if you connect to a db etc. you only have to
write the code for the db_connect only one time (I include this, too).
Was this what you wanted to know?
Cheers,
Kiko
