Hey,
So, i made this Class a while ago, for a project, then decided to post it on my blog, and now, here.
It's the sort of system PhpBB uses.
You can use .html/.tpl files etc, and use the {tags}
You can use variables for "replacement" too.
Check out the class, then i will explain how to use it.
This is how to use it.
Ok, and a example of your .tpl/.html file would be...
When i said variables earlier, you could use them like this. (Lets get the Sitename from the MySql DB, the sort of thing to use in a CMS)
Also, lets say we want to use a specific "theme/template", which the template name/path is stored in the DB.
Last example, lets say you have the function in your CMS/Site, to enable/disable the CMS.
Like vBulletin...
Right, lets say, our "Disabled Page" is called offline.tpl
You could use...
You can use sortable tables and such, and still display them via this Class.
Hope you find it useful. :tu:
Rep' is appreciated.
