Hello guys.

I just wanna know is there any difference between these two? If there is , so which one is better ? which one has more performance ?

Code:

<div class="container">
       <div class="row">
              <h1>Test</1>
              {if $Gender eq "male" }
                     <p>Hello Mr</p>
              {else}
                     <p>Hello Mrs</p>
              {/if}
       </div>
</div>


or

Code:

{if $Gender eq "male" }
<div class="container">
        <div class="row">
              <h1>Test</1>
              <p>Hello Mr</p>
        </div>
</div>
{else}
<div class="container">
       <div class="row">
              <h1>Test</1>
              <p>Hello Mrs</p>
       </div>
</div>
{/if}

Two <div> blocks are going to be sent out anyway. The first example is more normalized than the second, but having:
Code:
{if $Gender eq "male"}Mr{else}Mrs{/if}
is even more normalized. That is, every bit of common code is outside anything that could change, and appears once -- easiest to make changes.

Only one block will be sent to the user, but which approach is better is a nontrivial question.
In this specific case, the first one I would prefer.
But YMMV.

"Only one block will be sent"

The 'container' and the nested 'row'. Slapdash notes.
