it's confusing, but you use the gettemplate thing, NOT the doouput to assign a whatever text is in the template to a variable, then when you do a dooutput all those templates you assigned to variables can be used in the final dooutput template

not sure if that makes sense, it is confusing till you get the hang of it

Thanks for the suggestion, Logician's webtemplates hack is nice but you cant use templates from inside it, which pretty much makes it useless to me.

Sorry for being dense, but I'm still kinda confused on what exactly to use. Is this code correct, if I have a template made in forum/admin called demotemplate?

eval( '$demotemplate=( "' . gettemplate( 'demotemplate' ) . '" );' );

I ask because since php doesnt use templates per se, this is really just a creative use of variables and I think there must be some missing piece(s) here.

Could you post a full example for clarity, or if you dont know exactly I'll fiddle around with it tonight and see if I get lucky.

it goes like this

PHP Code:


		
			
code



eval( '$demotemplate=( "' . gettemplate( 'demotemplate' ) . '" );' ); 

// any variables defined above can be used in this template

//the gettemplate is making $demotemplate equal everything inside the template



more code

eval( '$demotemplate1=( "' . gettemplate( 'demotemplate1' ) . '" );' ); 

//again anything defined above this can be used in the template, even if it was above the other gettemplate



eval( 'dooutput( "' . gettemplate( 'home' ) . '" );' );

//any variables defined above this ($demotemplate and $demotemplate1) can be used in this template

//but what happens here is that instead of having a variable equal this template you display the contents of this template to the user

got a better idea now? :D
