Just use straight PHP for conditionals in your template files

I can using php code in files that also use the template system?

Yes, the parser uses $this->load->view() first.

Code:

/**
     *  Parse a template
     *
     * Parses pseudo-variables contained in the specified template,
     * replacing them with the data in the second param
     *
     * @access    public
     * @param    string
     * @param    array
     * @param    bool
     * @return    string
     */
    function parse($template, $data, $return = FALSE)
    {
        $CI =& get_instance();
        $template = $CI->load->view($template, $data, TRUE);
