page.php:

CODE

<?
class page {
    var $content;
    var $title;
    var $footer;

    function init() {
        head();
        body();
        foot();
    }
    function head() {
        echo "<html>\n<head>\n<title>".$this->title."</title>\n";
        css();
        echo "\n</head>";
    }
    function css() {
        echo "<style type=\"text/css\">\n";
        echo "Put styles here!";
        echo "\n</style>";
    }
    function body() {
        echo $this->content;
    }
    function foot() {
        echo "\n".$this->footer;
    }
}
?>

index.php:

CODE

<?
include("page.php");
$page = new page();
$page->title = "KSKS";
$page->content = "asdsada";
$page->footer = ":D";
$page->init();
?>

and thats a basic template class.
I did this in a hurry because I have to go to class

hmm, this is *really* a template system, well not at all tbh. A template system is one where you have template files and you replace parts of it so esstially you never have to edit the core of your site.

This is just a conveinient way of making content boxes.

Maybe ill post mine later

/ do a tut.

This is more of a script than a tutorial really. If I were a total noob (which I am), I wouldn't have understood much (which I don't

)

I would recommend using HTML_Template_Sigma and HTML_Page instead, they're the best ones around

It's a super simple template class. It's pretty easy to understand

Well in my opinion this is a slightly more complicated one, but still basic. Easily coded as well...

CODE

<?php

/* template "system" coded by dan lamanna (copernicus)
[url=http://danlamanna.com]http://danlamanna.com[/url] - UNTESTED SCRIPT */

class Template
    {
        var $Template;

            function Template($TemplateFile)
                {
                    if (!file_exists($TemplateFile))
                        {
                            echo 'Template ' . $TemplateFile . ' does not exist.';
                                exit();
                            } else {
                                $this->$Template = implode("", file($TemplateFile));
                            }
                        }

                            function FixTags(array($Tags))
                                {
                                    if (sizeof($Tags) > 0)
                                        {
                                            foreach ($Tags as $Tag => $Content)
                                                {
                                                    $this->Template = str_replace("{" . $Tag . "}", $Content, $this->Template);
                                                }
                                            }
                                        }

                                            function Display()
                                                {
                                                    echo $this->Template;
                                                }
?>

Ok, this is untested remember! But to output this you would do something like this....

CODE

$Template = new Template("templatepage.tpl");
       $Template->FixTags(array(
        'tag1' => "content1",
        'tag2' => "content2"));
              $Template->Display();

personally i think smarty is a better template engine. I agree with the others its not really a tutorial and its not really the best use off OOP you would get the same result as that from a basic function.
