Report a new bug to HTML_Template_Flexy |
» Description | |
HTML_Template_Flexy started it's life as a simplification of HTML_Template_Xipe, however in Version 0.2, It became one of the first template engine to use a real Lexer, rather than regex'es, making it possible to do things like ASP.net or Cold Fusion tags. However, it still has a very simple set of goals. - Very Simple API, o easy to learn... o prevents to much logic going in templates - Easy to write document'able code o By using object vars for a template rather than 'assign', you can use phpdoc comments to list what variable you use. - Editable in WYSIWYG editors o you can create full featured templates, that doesnt get broken every time you edit with Dreamweaver(tm) or Mozilla editor o Uses namespaced attributes to add looping/conditionals - Extremely Fast, o runtime is at least 4 time smaller than most other template engines (eg. Smarty) o uses compiled templates, as a result it is many times faster on blocks and loops than than Regex templates (eg. IT/phplib) - Safer (for cross site scripting attacks) o All variables default to be output as HTML escaped (overridden with the :h modifier) - Multilanguage support o Parses strings out of template, so you can build translation tools o Compiles language specific templates (so translation is only done once, not on every request) - Full dynamic element support (like ASP.NET), so you can pick elements to replace at runtime Features: - {variable} to echo $object->variable - {method()} to echo $object->method(); - {foreach:var,key,value} to PHP foreach loops - tag attributes FLEXY:FOREACH, FLEXY:IF for looping and conditional HTML inclusion - {if:variable} to PHP If statement - {if:method()} to PHP If statement - {else:} and {end:} to close or alternate If statements - FORM to HTML_Template_Flexy_Element's - replacement of INPUT, TEXTAREA and SELECT tags with HTML_Template_Flexy_Element code use FLEXY:IGNORE (inherited) and FLEXY:IGNOREONLY (single) to prevent replacements - FLEXY:START/FLEXY:STARTCHILDREN tags to define where template starts/finishes - support for urlencoded braces {} in HTML attributes. - documentation in the pear manual - examples at http://svn.php.net/pear/packages/HTML_Template_Flexy/trunk/tests/ |
