Re: Issues with the templates system...

Iain,

phplib's template is guilty, not phpslash ;-))
a good tutorial here :  http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/PHPLib/
phplib's page : http://phplib.sf.net

editing the templates without understanding its functionalities is possible
anyway. but anyone doing so will have to follow these "do not" rules :

- do not move a {VARIABLE} outside its own <-- BEGIN .*-->
  and <-- END .*--> block limit

- do not move a {VARIABLE} outside its own template file

- do not rename a {VARIABLE} (not even to lowercase)

- do not remove, move or alter any <-- comment --> you find in the
 templates

- do not type your <script> functions() {/* using two brackets on the same line
*/}
  (template engine will remove any unused {VARIABLES} when parsing out,
  including the javascript brackets and the text between them).

- do not panic


be well

> Heya,
>     I've been playing with the templates to customise the site.  There seems
to be very little information on the how the templates work apart from the FAQ.
The problem I'm experiencing is that when I use a { } value - the parser
substitutes it with a blank value.  For example {IMAGE_URL} is used in one of
the basic templates where it works but if I reuse that in say the topicBar.tpl
then I get nothing.
