Smarty Template not working with {php} tags - Delphi-PHP Forums

Dorac · #1 (**permalink**) 23rd May 2009, 14:51

Hi all, im very new to the Delphi4php so please bare with me if what i'm asking sounds like a really stupid question.

I have my application using smarty templates which is all fine and dandy, the components work and im happy with it. The problem is i need to have some php code on some of the pages to get my $_GETs which would allow me to show certain sections of my page.

Here is my template code for header.tpl

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
 "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<title>TimeDesign 1.0</title>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/default.css" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/components.css" type="text/css">
{%$HeaderCode%}
</head>
<body>

{* this template includes a {php} block that assign's the variable $varX *}
{php}
   global $foo, $bar;
   if($foo == $bar){
     echo 'This will be sent to browser';
   }
  // assign a variable to Smarty
  $this->assign('varX','Toffee');
{/php}
{* output the variable *}
<strong>{$varX}</strong> is my fav ice cream :-)

{%$StartForm%}
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="title">My Test System</div>
<div id="navigation">
  <div id="navbar">{%$mnu_Navbar%}</div>
  <!-- TODO make this a component -->
  <div id="pagebar">
    <ul>
      <li><a href="">Master Table</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Educators</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Classes</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Rooms</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Rooms</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Subjects</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Layout</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Groups</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Solve It</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Reports</a></li>
      <li><a href="">Substitutions</a></li>
    </ul>
  </div>
</div>

<div id="header">
  <div id="left">&nbsp;</div>
  <div id="right">
    <table cellspacing="10">
      <tr>
        <td>{%$btn_Unlock_Headings%}</td>
        <td>{%$btn_Add_Period%}</td>
        <td>{%$btn_Add_Day%}</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>{%$btn_Relabel_Headings%}</td>
        <td>{%$btn_Remove_Period%}</td>
        <td>{%$btn_Remove_Day%}</td>
      </tr>
    </table>
  </div>
</div>

<div id="middle_wrapper">

  {%include file="templates/sidebar.tpl"%}


    <div id="content">

index.tpl includes header.tpl and footer.tpl both of which I dont think is important to display here.

I did research on how to include php code in template files and was lead here
Smarty

It didn't work so I thought it was my smarty template version that was out of date so updated it... same problem.

My question to all you gurus out there is what am I doing wrong and how can I fix this so I may use php in my template files?

Really appreciate your help thanks.

Nevermind... figured it out.

In every tag you need to type any tag with {%tag%}

So I used

Code:

{%php%}

$bla bla = "bla bla";

{%/php%}

Hi look at this weird code: {%bla bla%} ... weird hey?

Which works

Glad you sorted it out Dorac!

Thanks, another problem I have though:

I am trying to include a smarty template file but using a php variable instead of a set name. This is of course in a smarty template file (header.tpl):

Code:

{%include file="templates/$page_name.tpl"%}

i also tried

Code:

{%include file="templates/$_GET['page'].tpl"%}

and

Code:

{%include file="templates/$_GET.page.tpl"%}

Arrays are referenced like this according to Smarty

What am i doing wrong though?

EDIT: Found solution on: Looking for a tutorial to use Smarty templates with D4PHP?

Hi,

Have you see the good example : "templates" in samples folder

I'm think you must include {%$HeaderCode%} {%$StartForm%} at start body {%$EndForm%} at end
