Help with template

[Arimak]

This is more of a basic code-reuse question, but what I've got is:

 

function LoadTemplate($template, $title, $main)
{
/*dbg*/ WriteToLog("INFO: LoadTemplate()");
/*enddbg*/
$template = stripslashes($template);
$template = eregi_replace('{title}', $title, $template);
$template = eregi_replace('{main}', $main, $template);

/*dbg*/ WriteToLog("   INFO: Replaced tags: {title}, {main}");
return $template;
}

 

What I'd like to do is be able to replace an undetermined number of tags with dynamic content.

 

I'm still very new to PHP, so how to do something simple like this is still elusive to me.

Here's what I do:

 

$homeDir = "/home/username/";
$domain = "mydomain.com";
include($homeDir . "includes/comm_config.inc");
$ct = file_get_contents($homeDir . "includes/template.html");
$css = file_get_contents($homeDir . "public_html/css/styles.css");
$ct = str_replace("%css_file%", "<style>" . $css . "</style>", $ct);
$header = substr($ct, 0, stripos($ct,"%main_area%"));

$footer = substr($ct, stripos($ct,"%main_area%")+11);


echo $header;
echo "This is my content.";
echo $footer;

 

Then in my template file, I have %css% in the header area, and %main_area% in--you guessed it--the main content area.
