You pretty much can't separate logic from presentation in PHP because the scripting has to be in the page code with the HTML. If you have HTML design people working on the pages you risk having them screw up your business logic, and vice versa. IT also makes the code more complicated to decipher and maintain. You can move business logic out with servlets (and with beans and custom tags). Since servlets are Java, and OO, you can use the same one in multiple pages. PHP = JSP only, without the added power of servlets, etc.
