<sect1>Template
<p>
<em/Note:/ If you think that this is like FastTemplates, read
carefully. It isn't.

<p> 
The template class allows you to keep your HTML code in some
external files which are completely free of PHP code, but
contain replacement fields. The class provides you with
functions which can fill in the replacement fields with
arbitrary strings. These strings can become very large, e.g.
entire tables.


<sect2>Instance variables
<p>

<table>
<tabular ca="">
classname<colsep>String. Serialization helper: The name of this class.<rowsep>

debug<colsep>Boolean: if set to true, the class will emit
debugging output.<rowsep>

unknowns<colsep>One of "keep", "comment", "remove" (Default).
Determines how to handle unresolved variable names in
templates upon output. If set to "keep", those are left
untouched. If set to "comment", unresolved variable names are
transformed into HTML comments reporting the error. If set to
"remove", unresolved variable names are silently removed (the
default).<rowsep>

halt&lowbar;on&lowbar;error = "yes"<colsep>One of "yes"
(Default), "report", "no". Determines how Template handles
error conditions. If set to "yes" (the Default), the error is
reported, then execution is halted. If set to "report", the
error is reported, then execution continues by returning
"false". If set to "no", errors are silently ignored, and
execution resumes reporting "false".<rowsep>

last&lowbar;error = ""<colsep>The last error message is
kept in this variable.<rowsep>
</tabular>
<caption>Accessible instance variables.</caption>
</table>

<table>
<tabular ca="">
file<colsep>Hash of strings. A translation table which
translates variable names into filenames.<rowsep>

root<colsep>String (Pathname). The base directory from which
template files are being loaded.<rowsep>

varkeys<colsep>Hash of strings. A translation table which
translates variable names into regular expressions for
themselves.<rowsep>

varvals<colsep>Hash of strings. A translation table which
translates variable names into replacement values for their
respective varkeys.<rowsep>

</tabular>

<sect2>Instance methods
<p>

<sect3>Accessible instance methods
<p>

<descrip>
<tag>Template($root = ".", $unknowns = "remove")</tag>
<p>
Constructor. May be called with two optional parameters. The
first parameter sets the template directory (see
<tt/set&lowbar;root()/, the second parameter sets the policy
regarding handling of unknown variables.

<tag>set&lowbar;root($root)</tag>
<p>
The function checks that $root is a valid directory and sets
this directory as the base directory where templates are being
stored.

<tag>set&lowbar;unknowns($unknowns = "keep")</tag>
<p>
The function sets the policy for dealing with unresolved
variable names. Must be either "remove", "comment" or "keep". If
set to "keep", those are left untouched. If set to "comment",
unresolved variable names are transformed into HTML comments
reporting the error. If set to "remove", unresolved variable
names are silently removed (the default).

<tag>set&lowbar;file($handle, $filename = "")</tag>
<p>
The function defines a filename for the initial value of a
variable. It may be called with either a $handle/$filename pair
or with a hash of $handle/$filename pairs. The files are not
referenced yet, but only when needed.

<tag>set&lowbar;block($parent, $handle, $name = "")</tag>
<p>
A variable $parent may contain a variable block named by
$handle. The function removes that block from $parent and
replaces it with a variable reference named $name. If $name is
omitted, it is assumed to be the same as $handle.

<tag>set&lowbar;var($varname, $value = "")</tag>
<p>
The functions sets the inital value of a variable. It may be
called with either a $varname/$value pair or with a hash of
$varname/$value pairs.

<tag>subst($handle)</tag>
<p>
The function returns the value of the variable named $handle,
with all defined variable values filled in. The resulting string
is not "finished", that is, the unresolved variable name policy
has not been applied yet.

<tag>psubst($handle)</tag>
<p>
This is a shorthand for <tt/print $this->subst($handle)/.

<tag>parse($target, $handle, $append = false)</tag>
<p>
The function substitutes the values of all defined variables in
the variable named $handle and stores or appends the result in
the variable named $target.

If $handle is an array of variable names, $append is ignored.
The variables named by $handle are being sequentially
substituted and the result of each substitution step is stored
in $target. The resulting substitution is available in the
variable named by $target, as is each intermediate step for the
next $handle in sequence.

<tag>pparse($target, $handle, $append = false)</tag>
<p>
A shorthand for <tt/print $this->parse(...)/.

<tag>get&lowbar;vars()</tag>
<p>
Returns a hash of all defined values, keyed by their names.

<tag>get&lowbar;var($varname)</tag>
<p>
Returns the value of the variable named by $varname. If $varname
references a file and that file has not been loaded, yet, the
variable will be reported as empty.

When called with an array of variable names, an hash of values,
keyed by their names, will be returned.

<tag>get&lowbar;undefined($handle)</tag>
<p>
The function will return a hash of unresolved variable names in
$handle, keyed by their names (that is, the hash has the form
$a[$name] = $name).

<tag>finish($str)</tag>
<p>
The function will returned the finished version of $str, that
is, the policy regarding unresolved variable names will be
applied to $str.

<tag>p($varname)</tag>
<p>
The function will print the finished version of the value of the
variable named by $varname.

<tag>get($varname)</tag>
<p>
The function will return the finished version of the value of
the variable named by $varname.

<tag>haltmsg($msg)</tag>
<p>
This function can be overridden by your subclass of Template. It
will be called with an error message to print.
</descrip>

<sect3>Internal instance methods
<p>
<descrip>
<tag>filename($filename)</tag>
<p>
When called with a relative pathname, this function will return
the pathname with $this->root prepended. Absolute pathnames are
taken unchanged.

The resulting filename must exist, or an error is generated.

<tag>varname($varname)</tag>
<p>
The function will construct a variable name regexp for a given
variable name.

<tag>loadfile($handle)</tag>
<p>
If a variable is undefined or empty and is backed by a filename,
the backing file will be loaded and the files contents will be
assigned as the variables value.

<tag>halt($msg)</tag>
<p>
This function is called whenever an error occurs and will handle
the error according to the policy defined in
$this->halt&lowbar;on&lowbar;error.
</descrip>

<sect2>Example
<p>
The class manages a set of variables which are text strings.
These strings may contain references to other variables in the
form of "{variable}". When parsed or substituted, a variable
reference is being replaced by the value of that variable.

A variable value may be defined manually by calling
<tt/set&lowbar;var("name", "value");/ or it may be defined from
a file by calling <tt/set&lowbar;file("name",
"filename.ihtml");/. In the latter case, the contents of the
file are being loaded when needed (as late as possible) and set
as the value of that variable.

A third way to define a variable value is to call
<tt/set&lowbar;block("parent", "block", "name");/. In this case,
the variable named <tt/parent/ is being searched for a block
that starts with <tt>&lt;!-- BEGIN block --&gt;</tt> and ends
with <tt>&lt;!-- END block --&gt;</tt>. This string is removed
from the variable <tt/parent/ and assigned to the variable named
<tt/block/. In <tt/parent/, a variable reference to <tt/name/ is
placed instead. If the optional parameter <tt/"name"/ is left
out, <tt/"block"/ is being used instead.

Use <tt/Template/ direcly or define a subclass of <tt/Template/
as needed.

Define a template file named page.ihtml as follows:

<tscreen><code>
&lt;html&gt;
 &lt;head&gt;&lt;title&gt;{PAGETITLE}&lt;/title&gt;&lt;/head&gt;
 &lt;body bgcolor="#ffffff"&gt;
 &lt;table border=1 cellpadding=4 cellspacing=0 bgcolor="#eeeeee"&gt;
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td colspan=2&gt;&lt;h1&gt;{PAGETITLE}&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
  &lt;/tr&gt;
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;{OUT}&lt;/td&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;Content&lt;/td&gt;
  &lt;/tr&gt;
 &lt;/table&gt;
 &lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;
</code></tscreen>

This file contains a reference to the variable <tt/pagetitle/
and a reference to the variable named <tt/out/. Another template 
file, named box.ihtml, contains a block named row with three
variable references {TITLE}, {NUM} and {BIGNUM}:

<tscreen><code>
&lt;!-- start box.ihtml --&gt;
&lt;table border=1 bgcolor="#cccccc" cellpadding=4 cellspacing=0&gt;
 &lt;tr&gt;
  &lt;td colspan=2&gt;&lt;b&gt;{TITLE}&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
 &lt;/tr&gt;
  &lt;!-- BEGIN row --&gt;
  &lt;tr&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;{NUM}&lt;/td&gt;
   &lt;td&gt;{BIGNUM}
  &lt;/tr&gt;
  &lt;!-- END row --&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;!-- end box.ihtml --&gt;
</code></tscreen>

The following php3 file demonstrates how to use these templates:

<tscreen><code>
&lt;?php
  include("./template.inc");

  # create Template instance called $t  
  $t = new Template("/page/to/webserver/template", "keep");

  # define variables named page and box, referencing files
  $t-&gt;set_file(array(
     "page" =&gt; "page.ihtml",
     "box"  =&gt; "box.ihtml"));

  # extract the block named "row" from "box", creating a
  # reference to {rows} in "box".
  $t-&gt;set_block("box", "row", "rows");

  # define the variables TITLE and PAGETITLE
  $t-&gt;set_var(array("TITLE"     =&gt; "Testpage",
                    "PAGETITLE" =&gt; "hugo"));

  # define NUM and BIGNUM, then append "row" to "rows"...
  for ($i=1; $i&lt;=3; $i++) {
    $n  = $i;
    $nn = $i*10;
    $t-&gt;set_var(array("NUM" =&gt; $n, "BIGNUM" =&gt; $nn));
    $t-&gt;parse("rows", "row", true);
  }

  # build out from box, then build out from page...
  $t-&gt;parse("out", array("box", "page"));

  # finish out and print it.
  $t-&gt;p("out");
?&gt;
&lt;hr&gt;
&lt;?php
  # report leftover variables, if any.
  print implode(", ", $t-&gt;get_undefined("rows"));
 ?&gt;
