Not really. That's one nice thing about PHP--there is no orthodoxy.

That's the style I prefer. Echo HTML from PHP becoming a huge pain when
the page makes use of Javascript. Instead of plain-o echo, I usually
use a function with a short name, as almost nearly everything output
needs to be escaped for HTML special characters.
Example:
function P($s, $flags = 0) {
$s = htmlspecialchars($s);
if(!($flags & NO_BR_TAGS)) {
$s = nl2br($s);
}
echo $s;
}
Then scatter throughout my HTML:
.....
<tr><td><a href="<? P($url) ?>"><? P($title) ?></a></td></tr>
....
