Oh, many of us will have a go at PHP for that. CSS doesn't really help much, as you still have most of your program code stuffed in a servable document rather than kept right away from your markup. There are ways to remedy it a little, but it's better not to have the problem there in the first place, eh?

May I point out FastTemplates? It's a PHP class that allows you to completely separate content from code.

You may, but I'd then be forced to whack you over the head with a copy of CGI::FastTemplate for perl, which does exactly the same thing and also allows us to use DBI (which is database abstraction done almost right, and is better [IMHO] than PHP's feeble attempt at database abstraction).
Just my 2p!
