View/Edit view file

I'm having some issues with this approach... my code is currently like this:

Code:

foreach($result as $row)
echo "<h1>Foo is </h1>";
{
    if(isset($new)) {
        echo '&lt;input type="text" name="foo"&gt;';
    }
    elseif(isset($edit)) {
        echo '&lt;input type="text" name="foo" value="$row[foo]"&gt;';
    }
    else {
        echo $row->foo;
    }
}

This code is deeply flawed! If I want to add a new record, no queries will be performed so $result will not be set, so it errors.

How should I be doing this?
