Templating system help

Dzetki · Nov 13, 2011

Well, hello. I have a tempalting system, but i need all my most crutial codes into a $content tag or something similar to it. Only way i could figure, was to use an include and include a file that contains all the codes i have, but that'd slow the site down wouldn't it?

Could anyone help? Please? ;]

You make no sense, but from the shoutbox I know what you want to do, I think.

index.php

PHP:

<?php
include 'config.php';
include 'template_sys.php';

getFile('templates/default/index.html');

templates/default/index.html

PHP:

<html>
<head><title>{$config->title}</title></head>
<body>

Hey, welcome to {$config->siteName}

</body>
</html>

config.php

PHP:

<?php
$CONFIG = array();

$CONFIG['title'] = 'Index!!!';

$CONFIG['siteName'] = 'YABS: Yet another boring software';
?>

template_sys.php

PHP:

function filter($str)
{
    foreach($CONFIG as $key => $value)
    {
          $str = str_ireplace('{$config->' . $key . '}', $value, $str);
    }

    return $str;
}

function getFile($file)
{
    return filter(file_get_contents($file));
}

Damn this post was big, I wrote all of this in this form, should work. But probably has silly typo.

Anywhore, enjoy!

Thank you Manuel, once again. But what my main problem is, is that i need alot of code into {$config->content}. Like, all my content persists of

PHP:

$fps = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM posts ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5");
                    $id = $_GET['id'];

                    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($fps)) {
                      echo "<strong><div style='border:1px solid #FFF;width:100%;'>" .$row['title']. "</div></strong>" . $row['content'] . "<br /><div style='font-weight:italic;color:silver;font-size:12px;'>Author: " . $author . "</div>";
                      echo "" . $row['content'] . "<br /><div style='font-weight:italic;color:silver;font-size:12px;'>Author: " . $author . "</div>";
                        }
                        if (!$fps)
                        {

                         echo "Could not find any posts/there was an error getting the posts. Sorry!";

                        }

how do i get all of that into {$config->content}?

Kryptos · Nov 14, 2011

Sorry to burst your bubble, but you can't do that.

First of all, why would you even want to do that?
Second of all, again, you can't.

These 'tags' aren't used for this. They are used to store HTML, not PHP.

Dzetki · Nov 14, 2011

well, mainly i needed help figuring out how to get all of that, into an easier function. Probably weren't clear enough it seems. Instead of putting all that into a separate file, and include that file into the templating system, what should i do then? As after what i've experienced, including the content all the time leads to a slowdown in the script.

Kryptos · Nov 14, 2011

I don't think it'd a slowdown, unless either 1) Your computer is total shit. or 2) The script is huge and it issloppy (Script is VERY simple). or 3) Script has an issue.

PHP:

<?php
function query($SQL)
{
    return mysql_query($SQL);
}

function filter($var)
{
    return mysql_real_escape_string($var);
}

$fps = query("SELECT * FROM posts ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5");

if(mysql_num_rows($fp) > 0)
{
    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($fps))
    {
          echo "<strong><div style='border:1px solid #FFF;width:100%;'>" .$row['title']. "</div></strong>" . $row['content'] . "<br /><div style='font' weight:italic;color:silver;font-size:12px;'>Author: " . $row['author'] . "</div>";

          echo "" . $row['content'] . "<br /><div style='font-weight:italic;color:silver;font-size:12px;'>Author: " . $row['author'] . "</div>";
    }
}
else
{
    echo "Could not find any posts/there was an error getting the posts. Sorry!";
}
?>

What you did wasn't coded properly, that is. I also added a little function incase you feel inspired and do some functions of your own to shorten a few lines fo code.

Probably the first as a problem, thinkpad lenovo have been shit since it were released.

Anyhow, thanks again man. I'll start doing that aswell now. ^^

Also, i got an error with the

PHP:

function query($SQL)

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare query() (previously declared in C:\xampp\htdocs\abcpost\show_post.php:3) in C:\xampp\htdocs\abcpost\show_post.php on line 6

langer6 · Nov 14, 2011

Your query call could be something like this

PHP:

function query($table, $additional){
    global $query;
    $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM news_comments ORDER BY id $order $additional");
    return $query;
}

I do not know if that is what Krptos meant. I find that useful in my scripts

Usually with a few more lines in it

Kryptos · Nov 14, 2011

Just change

PHP:

function query($SQL)
{
    return mysql_query($SQL);
}

With

PHP:

function dbquery($SQL)
{
    return mysql_query($SQL);
}
