hi
I think tinybutstrong is a good a modern PHP 5 Class
to have as a template engine.
Once you have learned the syntax and get used to it.
Maybe even a better alternative than Smarty!
I downloaded latest version. http://www.tinybutstrong.com/
If ever I would go into the method of template engine use,
instead of for each application custom PHP coding templates,
I might give tinybutstrong a go.
When using an engine, you will have sort of a STANDARD procedure
and technique for making and putting together HTML pages.
A good template engine is flexible to fit most kinds of apps, in a good way.
And should not have excessive mass of code to add to the appliaction.
Code for such features you hardly ever will use, for example.
The ultimate result will, in most of my own cases,
be to use a custom coded method for each application.
With no more code or add-on classes or functions, than is needed.
Because this is the way I think, the way I like it and the way I work.
