I have a .php file that I want to use as a template.
The files that I will use with this template file will have very simple scripts such as:
<p>a paragraph of text</p>
<p>a paragraph of text</p>
<p>a paragraph of text</p>
<p>a paragraph of text</p>
I want to know how I do it.
IMPORTANT:
I am not looking for something like:
<?php include "header.php");?>
text
<?php include "footer.php");?>
In between is not gonna work for me.
I need a template file which I can use as a reference which will already have enough of php include's in it.
text will be just for one of the table cells.
thanks.
Table cells? Are you referring to a table-based html page layout or an actual table of data? Can you offer more details?
Thanks for the nice welcome!
What I meant was:
In my template file I also have other php files inserted by <?php include
I also have a couple of tables in the very same template file. (meaning table as in <table>)
And the "text" I mentioned will be put in a cell of one of these tables. (<td>)
The template file is actually is an html file with different php files "include"d in some certain cells.
Anyways, below is the actual template that I want to use.
All I want to add to it with the other file is {tpl_title} and {tpl_head_text}. you can see below where I want them.
thanks.

<?php
$tpl_title = 'My Title';
$tpl_head_text = 'Heading Text';
?>
<html>
<head>
...
<title>FiscalStudy.com - <?php print $tpl_title;?></title>
...
<td><div align="center"><strong><?php print $tpl_title;?></strong></div></td>
...
<td><div align="justify"><?php print $tpl_head_text;?></div></td>
...
but once I set my template file this way, I would like to know how I should have the corresponding files?
can you please post a sample script?
<?php
$tpl = implode( '' , file( 'template.php' ) );
$search = array( '{tpl_head_text}' , '{tpl_title}' );
$replace = array( 'h1 title text' , 'this is the page title' );
$str = str_replace( $search, $replace , $tpl );
echo $str;
?>
But with that, I had trouble with the php inclusions in the template file. They just did not work.
Please help.
thanks.
if (file_exists($templatefile)) {
$newFile=fopen($templatefile,"r");
//read out the content
$fileContent=fread($newFile,filesize($templatefile));
//close the file
fclose($newfile);
$search = array( '{tpl_head_text}' , '{tpl_title}' );
$replace = array( 'h1 title text' , 'this is the page title' );
$str = str_replace( $search, $replace , $fileContent );
}
Try this one =)
But, pls note, this is a very simple example, and should not declared as a template System *G*
can you tell me why the php include functions (inside the template file) do not work when you 'implode' the template file? They work all fine when you use 'include' or 'require'.
I really like what you are suggesting.
It would be so easy to implement it as follows:
<?php
$title = "whatever title!";
$text = "whatever text";
?>
<?php include ("flashtemplate.php");?>
But my problems is, for the $text, I have to insert a text with html codes which is as long as 5 paragraphs. Something like:
<p>a paragraph of text</p>
<p>a paragrapg of text</p>
<p>a paragrapg of text</p>
<p>a paragrapg of text</p>
<p>a paragrapg of text</p>
How can I do it without making a text inclusion from a third file?
this is gonna be just for one section of the site which needs to have the same look as the other pages.
so I already have the template.php file.
All I need to know is how I can insert 5 paragraphs of text into $text without having to make a php inclusion for a third file.
Alternately, you could set up all your paragraphs and just include the template. That's usually my preference.
pg1.php
<?
$para1 = <<<PARA1
This is <span>paragraphs one</span> with html in it and everything
PARA1
$para23 = <<<PARA23
This is <span>paragraphs two and three</span> with html in it and everything
PARA23
include("T_default.php");
?>
file: T_default.php
<?
include("header.inc.php");
echo "<p>$para1</p>";
echo "<p>$para23</p>";
include("footer.inc.php");
?>
include
