Template System

[clericvash]

ok my current system is;

$fp = fopen ("styles/$style[name]/forums_top.tpl.php", "rb");
$text = fread ($fp, filesize("styles/$style[name]/forums_top.tpl.php"));
$text = str_replace('{$','<?php print $',$text);
$text = str_replace('}','; ?>',$text);
fclose ($fp);

eval($text);

If i try that it says;

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '<' in /home/clericv2/public_html/forum/includes/forums.php(8) : eval()'d code on line 1

But then if i echo instead of eval to check if its ok its perfect...it changes {$sitename} to <?php print $sitename; ?> but then if its eval'd it gives that error?

it not going to work like that you need do it like below

 $sitename='test';
$text='bla blah {$sitename} blah bla '; 

$text = str_replace('{','',$text); 
$text = str_replace('}','',$text); 


eval("echo \"$text\";");

thats completely the wrong way, did you even read what it was doing?

[sidney]

your trying to replace {$sitename} in styles/$style[name]/forums_top.tpl.php with the $sitename value.

obviously i didnt read any of your post

maybe if you explained your self better and presented all the info i might have been closer to what your trying to do
