Which template system should I use ?

Hi again,

say me please what the purpose to use template engine in CI ?

To avoid mixing PHP and HTML.

what the difference between template engine in CI and views with the alternative php syntax?

When you use template engine you get additional layer of code, which is responsible only for preparing the output. It's not necessary to have it, but it may be useful in more complicated scenarios, like when you don't only need to show some data but also choose one of themes (which can differ in HTML code, not just CSS), give parameters to javascript and so on.

Having all these things in HTML view with PHP tags can easily get messy.

Using template system or not is a matter of choice. In this particular project I know I'll need one, because there will be 2-3 developers and splitting the program logic into PHP and PHP+HTML is not a good idea.

So, I'm still looking for template system. Kucerar said it's crappy, so I won't use it. Any other ideas ?

Greetings,
miau
