There is a good book that provides names to the various techniques needed to
take a 'bad' bit of code and rework it until you get a good bit of code.
That book is called 'Refactoring' and I believe it was written by Martin
Fowler. Excellent for advice on how to clean up your code.

MVC is probably not the pattern you need (based on statistics: there are
hundreds of patterns. both responses picked one without any foundation
whatsoever for selecting it. Odds are, they are wrong!)

Not only is MVC a particularly vague pattern, it is nearly useless in
event-driven systems like we usually face today. It's derivatives like
Front Controller are useful, but your problem could be solved by an entirely
different combination of patterns. It is hard to tell based on the limited
info you provided.

Check out the 'Refactoring' book. It will help.
