Advice on template system

[Anon]

Now that Jesus (Castagnetto that is..)
has written a generic caching system for generic template classes, I need to decide which of the (at least) 5 template systems
(available at phpclasses.upperdesign.com) I want to use...
Has anybody, please, any advice? Did anybody compare any of these?
I read the (excellent) articles here at phpbuilder, but still know nothing about the other classes, and since it's my first attempt at 'templating' I honestly am not sure on how to compare them.... :-)

TIA

Sergio

FastTemplate and PHPLIB's Template classes are almost equivalent in functionality, but they differ in the way they work internally.

You could start playing w/ FastTemplate PHPLIB's Template classes, and look into the other ones later.

I had not done a straight comparison, i.e. define a layout and then implement the code in each of the (now 6) classes, and then look at the timings and difficulties. This could be a good topic for an article.

Good luck.
