How to use the PEAR ITX templating system

In this tutorial, I'll explain and demonstrate how to use the ITX templating system from the PEAR collection of useful classes for PHP. As we go along, I'll show you some of the competitors, why I didn't like them and why in the end I choose to work with ITX in my own scripts.We will build a simple example script that will load and fill out the data out of a database. This script will use another PEAR component, a database abstraction layer. If you are not familiar with PEAR's DB abstraction layer.
