eval of tpl files

brooky

Hi there,

I'm using the following code to evalute a *.tpl file.

$tempfile = "../../templates/site_document.tpl";
	$template = fopen ($tempfile, "r");
	$content = fread ($template, filesize ($tempfile));

$title 	= "This is my title";
$copy	= "This is my copy";

eval ("\$content = \"$content\";");
echo $content;

Here is the template file:

<div align="center">$title</div>
<span class="copyClass">$copy</span>

My question....

How can I change the format of $title and $copy so that it evalustes {title} and {copy} instead.

Many scripts such as phpBB use this format. 🙂

Any help VERY much appreciated.

I think the eval statement need modification. HOw I dont know?!?! 🙂

Hi,

a simple solution could be:

Template:

<div align="center">{title}</div>
<span class="copyClass">{copy}</span>

Code:

 
    $tempfile = "../../templates/site_document.tpl";
    $template = fopen ($tempfile, "r");
    $content = fread ($template, filesize ($tempfile));
    fclose($template);

$arrSubst['title'] = "This is my title";
$arrSubst['copy']  = "This is my copy";

foreach ($arrSubst as $key => $value) {
    str_replace("{".$key."}",$value,$content);
}

eval ("\$content = \"$content\";");
echo $content;

Unfortunately I couldn't test the whole stuff since I messed up my WAMP installation.
