 Posted: Thu Aug 22, 2019 8:03 am Post subject: Insert Smarty variable in dynamic HTML |
 |
|
Hello,
I want to insert a Smarty variable into a dynamic html string built in PHP. Something like:
| Code: |
$dynhtml='<b>Huisnummer: {$number} </b>';
$number="15";
$smarty->assign('dynhtml', $dynhtml);
$smarty->assign('number', $number);
|
The template:
Unfortunately the variable $number is not parsed so the text "Huisnummer: {$number}" is printed.
Is it possible to construct dynamic html this way?
Thanks for your answers,
Regards,
Hans |

Try in this order:
| Code: | $number="15";
$smarty->assign('number', $number);
$dynhtml=$smarty->fetch('string:<b>Huisnummer: {$number} </b>');
$smarty->assign('dynhtml', $dynhtml);

Why don't you just qrite it in the template?…
That looks like gross misunderstanding of the templating purpose. |

Not really,
The website has a number of forms that are all build with standard templates.
This one form however is a completely dynamic subscription form for a great number of events with each a different set of inputs and options, governed by a database. Therefore a static template is not an option.
Because all the other forms are made with Smarty templates, I am trying to build this one with Smarty too so I can keep as close to an MVC solution as possible.
regards,
Hans. |

Then write a form builder that does what you want, or use SmartySecurity module and store form template in the database, editable by user(s).
Resorting to "string:…" template is a least performant route, IMO. |

They serrve different purposes. (Assuming you did mean form builder I suggested earlier.)
SmartySecurity let you allow your users write Smarty templates AND limit their ability to affect system's stability through controlled execution. |
