ABSTRACTIONAS LITTLE LOGIC AS POSSIBLE(?)

NAUGHTY WORDPRESS<title> <?php global $page, $paged; wp_title( |, true, right ); bloginfo( name ); $site_description = get_bloginfo(description, display ); if ( $site_description && (is_home() || is_front_page() ) ) echo " | $site_description"; if ( $paged >= 2 || $page >= 2 ) ... ?></title>

MEDIAWIKI<?php if ( $boxName == navigation ) { print <nav>; $this->customBox(navigation, $cont); print </nav>; }?>

MEDIAWIKI<ul><li id="n-Home"> <a href="...">Home</a></li><li id="n-About"> <a href="...">About</a></li></ul>

MODX<div id="navigation"> [!Wayfinder?startId=‘0’!]</div>...<li[+wf.classes+]> <a href="[+wf.link+]"> <em>[+wf.linktext+]</em> </a>[+wf.wrapper+]</li>

DRUPAL<?php print render($page[navigation]);?>
