*/

/**

*/

/**
* Process headers and templates.
*/
public function process()

// First of all send headers before processing output.
foreach($this->headers as $h)
{
header($h);
}
// Extract the vars. This is so we don't have to use $this in the templates but direct variable names
extract($this->vars, EXTR_PREFIX_SAME, "wddx");
foreach($this->templates as $t)

include($this->path.$t.$this->extension);
}
}
}
?>
There is an example below. PHP Code: <?php
// You can use an autoload functions but for now I will just include the output class
include("class/output.php");
// Absolute path to the templates directory. Make sure include trailing slash friend like I do below.
$path = "/path/to/templates/goes/here/";
// INITIALISE!!! Use your own extension if you want (like .tpl.php or .template.php)
$output = new Output($path);
// ... GET MY DATA FROM DB HERE OR SOMETHING ...
// .. AND THEN MAGIC.... THE VARS FOR YOUR TEMPLATES
$vars = array(
"title" => "This is example of Output!",
"test" => "test"
);
// We can set as many headers/templates/vars we want!
// BUT REMEMBER THIS. TEMPLATES ARE OUTPUTTED IN THE ORDER YOU INDEX THEM!
$output->setVars($vars);
$output->setTemplate("example");
$output->process();
?>
Our example template looks like this. PHP Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title><?php echo $title ?></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
</head>
<body>
<h1><?php echo $test ?></h1>
</body>
</html>
