jj20051 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I've been trying to create a basic template system that will replace the data in {} correctly. The template system is supposed to auto load any pages called into the file by things like {load header} and replace the variables in there, but it doesn't... Here is my code and an example page: <?php $site_title = "This Title Works Just Fine"; $template_index = 'index.php'; $template_header = 'header.php'; $template = './templates/default'; class templateParser { var $output; function templateParser($templateFile='default_template.htm'){ (file_exists($templateFile))?$this->output=file_get_contents($templateFile):die('Error:Template file '.$templateFile.' not found'); } function parseTemplate($tags=array()){ if(count($tags)>0){ foreach($tags as $tag=>$data){ $data=(file_exists($data))?$this->parseFile($data):$data; $this->output=str_replace ('{'.$tag.'}',$data,$this->output); } } else { die('[Error: 023 - Template Variables Invalid or Missing]'); } } function parseFile($file){ ob_start(); include($file); $content=ob_get_contents(); ob_end_clean(); return $content; } function display(){ return $this->output; } } // Tags $tags = array( 'site_title'=>$site_title, 'load_header'=>$template.$template_header ); // instantiate a new template Parser object $tp=&new templateParser($template.$template_index); // parse template file $tp->parseTemplate($tags); // display generated page echo $tp->display(); ?> Example Page Code: // index.php {load_header} <div id="container"> <div id="left"> <div id="lefttitle">{site_title}</div><br><p> </p> </div> // header.php <title>{site_title}</title> </head> <body> <div id="headertitle">{site_title}</div> So the page loads fine... The problem is that the site title remains {site_title} and so does the "headertitle". The problem with this is that both are defined in the tags array and should be replaced by the variable $site_title. The "replacement" works just fine in index.php (replacing {site_title} like it should), but will not replace it in header.php which is why there is a problem. Can anyone help me fix this?

mikosiko Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 just a friendly suggestion... You should read Forum Rule # 17 and Forum DO NOT http://www.phpfreaks.com/page/rules-and-terms-of-service#toc_forum_do_nots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj20051 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 Alright, I apologize... I assumed that because it drifted down past 20 that no one had really looked at it... I will wait until after its on the second page from now on. Maybe I'll flip some code around to see if it helps. Update: Apparently if I run it through the function parseTemplate twice (once before and after loading the pages that fixes the problem.
