Combined HTML, PHP and Javascript indenting and syntax highlighting in vim

Question

I use vim for web development. These are almost always .php files, which also contain HTML and sometimes Javascript. While working in a block of PHP, indenting works fine. The syntax highlighting is okay, but only really useful for the PHP-code. When I want to edit an HTML block, I usually switch: :set ft=html, so that highlighting and indenting work well for that. Of course, I keep switching back and forth, which is time-consuming. I'd like to have all three languages' highlighting and indenting intelligently combined. Being able to =G the whole file at once and have it work for each block according to its own rules would be fantastic.

While I know that "I can do this myself", I somehow doubt that I'm the first person wanting this, and I'm looking for an existing solution.

Can anyone help me out?
