[PHP] A couple questions about templating From: James Williams (jamwil.php <email protected>)
Date: 05/09/05

Hey fellas, sorry to infest the list with another question about a
templating engine, but I am looking for some professional opinions
here...

I am trying to make a small, fast, and simple templating class... Now
I have mastered the art of variable replacement, and have made two
versions. The first one I made simply used file() to load up the file
into an array, str_replace() to replace variables, then it printed it
back. I made a second one, which reads the file into an array,
changes the variables the same way, but instead compiles the finished
product into a compile directory and then reads the compiled file back
to the page. the benefit to this being that I can easily create a
simple cache system now.

1st question) I need a professionaly opinion on to which solution is
better, considering speed, security, and expandability.

2nd question) Like I said before, I've mastered the art of variable
replacement, but how would one go about adding support for if {}
statements as well as loops. I'm a little bit lost when it comes to
this.

Thank-you guys very very much.
