Re: CREATING A FILE with a TEMPLATE

Uhm... wouldn't this be actually slower? You're reading the file, exploding into an array (file), then re-imploding it into a single variable, and then using regular expressions with a callback, so that a function has be called every time a match is found. It'd be interesting to find out which method is faster. I'll try timing both and I'll let you all know.
