PHP If statement within HTML Email

How do I add PHP code into an HTML email that is sent out via PHP?

The following does not work:

			$to = 'ME@ME.com';
			
			$subject = 'MY SUBJECT';
			
			$headers = "From: ME\r\n";
			$headers .= "Reply-To: help@ME.com\r\n";
			$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
			$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
			$message =	'<html><body>';
			$message .= '<h1>Thank you for your purchase</h1>
							<table>
								<tr>
									<td>TD Image One ONE</td>
									<td>TD Image TWO </td>
								</tr>
								
								<tr>
									<td><img src="MY-IMAGE/GC-25.jpg"/></td>
									<td>';
									if ($item-name=="CI50") {
										echo '<img src="MY-IMAGEGC-50.jpg"/><br />'.$gon;
										} else {
											echo 'No Image Available';
										}
										echo '</td>
								</tr>
							</table>';
			$message .= '</html></body>';
				
				mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);		
		}

@Frosty I guess If I had really thought about it, I would have come up with this. However, thank you for pointing me in the correct and logical direction.

On another note, in an HTML email sent out via PHP where do I place the <style>? In the header?

Gmail blocks <style> tags completely and more block style <links>. See here: http://www.campaignmonitor.com/css/ Inline styles are supported to varying degrees.
