Have you tried it ? I haven't, but I see no immediate reason why it
wouldn't work with multiple PHP blocks.

Did you read the script before posting? ;-)
Here, you remove ASP-style tags. Which is fine, PHP supports them if you
configure it that way, but you probably didn't. Change this to the start
and end tags you actually use, and, if you use multiple forms (such as
<?php vs <?), then add another line or two.
