Hi,

I am running an output filter which retrieves the name of the template to be displayed and loads another file based on that name. The loaded file contains an array to be displayed in the template. When I attempt to assign that array to the template in the output filter it did not work.

Any ideas?

Thanks

An output filter runs on the final rendered template output. So you can modify the html output, but any assignments of new variables will have no effect as the rendering is already done.

May be you can run your code as post filter which will effect the compiled template.

Thanks for your reply.

I thought as much. So I'd have to do my own parsing at this point to get it to work? Which kind of defeats the point of doing it this way.

Running it as a pre compilation filter wouldn't work I don't think as the content is dynamic.

Ah I misread your post. I'll try a post filter.

Thanks

Just tried this. It didn't work as it only affects the template when it's compiled, and like I said, the content will be dynamic so I need to run it in an output filter.

So back to my question.. the only way I could achieve this would be to carry out the parsing myself?

Thanks
