[RESOLVED] code question

bluetonic

What does this mean? I recognize that { < CART BODY PRODUCT DESCRIPTION FEATURES LIST TITLE > } represents a path of some kind. Just curious what this sorta thing is called so I can learn more about it.

[CODE]<div class="productFeatures">
<!--start productFeatures div-->

    <h2>{ < CART BODY PRODUCT DESCRIPTION FEATURES LIST TITLE > } Features:</h2>


    <ul>
		{ < CART BODY PRODUCT DESCRIPTION FEATURES LIST > }
    </ul>

</div>[/CODE]

at a guess its an example of templateing, but seems a little odd, with out context its hard to know.

It does not intrinsically "mean" anything. If it's some sort of template syntax that is parsed and manipulated by some PHP script, then it may "mean" something to that PHP code, but there is no way for me to know out of context like this.

It is templating but what is calling it to load that template? How does it know to load it?

Again, without knowing the specific program you are running this under, there's no way for us to know. It is not a built-in PHP feature. Assuming it has something to do with PHP, it would be driven by the actual PHP code that was written for your application to handle such a template file -- it is nothing intrinsic to PHP itself.

Has anyone ever heard of SMARTY?

yes, but what you posted is not smarty, surely you can give some more context?
