The way I would do it, which doubtless various other people will say is
incorrect for various reasons, is as follows:
Firstly, separate out the css and js into individual files. It's much
easier to maintain the js and css in separate files than it is
encapsulated inside php.
Name each such file according to the styles or functions it contains,
then use code something like this:
<?php
// echo the doctype and opening html tag here
echo "<head>\n";
// echo any meta headers eg content-type here
echo "<title>{$pagetitle}</title>\n";
// then for each javascript file, either:
if (some_condition) echo "<script type='text/javascript'
src='{$jsfilenamex}'></script>\n";
// or:
if (some_condition) echo "<script type='text/javascript'
src='{$jsfilenamex}' />\n";
// and for each css file, either:
if (some_condition) echo "<link href='{$cssfileurlx}' rel='stylesheet'
type='text/css'>\n";
// or:
if (some_condition) echo "<link href='{$cssfileurlx}' rel='stylesheet'
type='text/css' />\n";
// echo any other html "head" contents here
echo "</head>\n";
?>
