place a marker variable or something like hte word body
then do a string_replace
or whatever on it, that is what I had to do to create dynamic php on a file, I had to get the file, copy it, and edit it, ehre is the code if that helps.

[code]<?php
session_start();
function read_file($file)
{
  if(!function_exists("file_get_contents"))return file_get_contents($file);
  $ifile = fopen($file,"r");
  $contents = false;
  if($ifile) while (!feof($ifile)) $contents .= fgets($ifile);
  fclose($ifile);
  return $contents;
}
?>

You see what I mean, now however, here are my template pages, that I used, it shows you what I did in those pages, that allowed me to do my search and replace with regular expressions

The template is chosen based on what they picked, for instance if they pick template1.php it takes it copies the information int eh file (the actual .php page itself), and saves it in another file, with the dynamic hcanges done to it.  Works pretty smoother

Template1.php
[code]<?php
session_start();
mysql_connect("localhost", other);
mysql_select_db("hasbadse_hbservice");
?>

echo $row['subdomainname'] . ".\n";
?>

$query = mysql_query($select);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
echo "<h4>" . stripslashes($row['header']) . "</h4>";
echo "<p>" . stripslashes($row['text']) . "</p>";
}
?>
</div>
<!-- End section that was done dynamically -->
</div>
</div>

template2.php

[code]<?php
session_start();

As you can see, it is a bad way for some things,f or instance, if the database information chagnes all the old templates are lost, the people who created accounts, that's what my new "config" file is for instead.  BUt it gives you the idea of what you wanted to do.

here we go... for all who wanted to see...
[code]
<?
$body=test;

$handle = @fopen("test.html", "r");
if($handle){
while(!feof($handle)) $buffer[] = fgets($handle, 4096);
fclose($handle);
}

foreach($buffer as $line){
if(strstr($line, '<!--')&&strstr($line, '-->')){
  $len=strlen($line);
  $before=substr($line, 0, strpos($line,"<!--"));

  $mid = substr($line, strpos($line,"<!--")+4);
  $mid=substr($mid,0,strpos($line,"-->")-10);
  $mid=trim($mid);

  $after=substr($line,strpos($line,"-->")+3);
  echo $before.$$mid.$after;
}else echo $line;
}
?>
[/code]

then in test.html
[code]
<table>
<tr>
  <td><!-- body --></td>
</tr>
</table>
[/code]

yes... but the whole idea here is inforcing templates...

[code]
<?
$body=test;

$required=array('body','head');

$handle = @fopen("test.html", "r");
if($handle){
while(!feof($handle)) $buffer[] = fgets($handle, 4096);
fclose($handle);
}

foreach($buffer as $line){
if(strstr($line, '<!--')&&strstr($line, '-->')){
  $len=strlen($line);
  $before=substr($line, 0, strpos($line,"<!--"));

  $mid = substr($line, strpos($line,"<!--")+4);
  $mid=substr($mid,0,strpos($line,"-->")-10);
  $mid=trim($mid);
  $i[$mid]=true;

  $after=substr($line,strpos($line,"-->")+3);
  $temp .= $before.$$mid.$after;
}$temp .= echo $line;
}
foreach($required as $k){
if(!isset($i[$k])) $failed=true;
}
if($failed){
$temp='';
require('template/default.php');
}
?>
[/code]

script isnt tested... but thats the jist...

taith, i know what youre getting at. but its well documented that PHP itself is a perfectly good templating engine itself. the short tags + alternative syntax are more than adequate. i'm sure a few people have noticed me point them towards this article before:
http://www.massassi.com/php/articles/template_engines/

which not only explains why template engines are not all that great, but also explains how to STILL use this whole templating concept but without the bloat/overhead.

tis a good read, even if you're adament not to go down that road.
