 |
|
Hi guys,
I am in serious need of assistence here. I have just started a new web development job and the new boss is a big fan of the PHPTAL template parser. Personally I dont aggree and really want to convince him that we should be using smarty. His main argument for PHPTAL so far has been its use of macros (which I admit is kind of nifty), but if can replicate the same functionality in smarty then I can probably convince him. This is where I need some help...
PHPTal allows you to do things like...
| Code: | <div metal:define-macro="box" tal:attributes="class class; id id">
<h1><tal:block metal:define-slot="heading"/></h1>
<p><tal:block metal:define-slot="content" /></p>
</div> |
and then use this code later by doing...
| Code: | <tal:block metal:use-macro="box" tal:define="class string:bloxclass; id string:boxid">
<tal:block metal:fill-slot="heading">
Header Hoes Here
</tal:block>
<tal:block metal:fill-slot="content">
<p>This is the body content of the webpage</p>
<img src="image.jpg"/>
<a href="next.html">Click Here To See More</a>
</tal:block>
</tal:block> |
So, what I would like to be able to do is...
| Code: | {define-macro name="box"}
<div class="{$class}" id="{$id}">
<h1>{$heading}</h1>
<p>{$content}</p>
</div>
{/define_macro} |
and use it, something similar to...
| Code: | {use_macro name="box" class="bloxclass" id="boxid"}
{macro_assign name="heading"}
Header Hoes Here
{/macro_assign}
{macro_assign name="content"}
<p>This is the body content of the webpage</p>
<img src="image.jpg"/>
<a href="next.html">Click Here To See More</a>
{/macro_assign}
{/use_macro} |
But I cant quite figure it out...
Can anyone help? |
