Template Handling SSI

[AtomicRax]

I'm trying to develop a website file manager. I want to allow SSI, and would like to handle it specifically..

 

$regexp = "<!--#include\s[^>]*virtual=(\"??)([^\" >]*?)\\1[^>]*\/-->"; 
if(preg_match_all("/$regexp/siU", $body, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER)) {
foreach($matches as $match) {
$includeFile = $match[2];
} }

 

This snippet shows how you would get the included file path in the SSI code of the website body [ the $body tag ], but I don't need to just find it- I want to replace the SSI code with a simpler code in the HTML that appears in the editor for easy management.. Then switch back from my easier code to the actual SSI code..

 

Example:

 

Replace

<!--#include virtual="/newsManager/output.php"-->

 

With

{INCLUDE=/newsManager/output.php}

 

THEN when the user saves the page,

 

Replace

{INCLUDE=/newsManager/output.php}

 

With

<!--#include virtual="/newsManager/output.php"-->

 

 

Is there an easy fix or should I just switch to a full blown template engine.. even though this is the only required feature?

I use

 

$body = str_replace("{TITLE}", $title, $body);

 

 

to replace the page title.. but that doesn't apply in this case either because I'm trying to get specific information from between the { } to use while modifying the same tag
