Okay well I see I have reopened the can of worms lol.

Rory you are my hero! you took the words right out of my mouth, and
yes, I am looking to create a small basic one that isn't bloated with
useless features. Basically variable replacement mostly.
Anyways, I restructered my code, and as far as I can see there is
nothing wrong with the code, except for that it simply doesn't work :)
I'm probably missing something blatently obvious but I'll post it and
maybe someone can spot why this isn't working. Here be the code:
<?php
class mm {
//
// PRIVATE CLASS VARIABLES
//
var $_file;
var $_template;
var $_var;
var $_value;
//
// CLASS CONSTRUCTOR
//
function mm() {
$this->_var = array();
$this->_value = array();
}
//
// ASSIGN A VARIABLE
//
function assign($var,$value) {
if (isset($var) && isset($value)) {
$this->_var[] = $var;
$this->_value[] = $value;
}
}
//
// RUN THE WEBPAGE
//
function run($template) {
if (isset($template)) {
$this->_template = 'tpl/' . $template . '.tpl';
if (file_exists($this->_template)) {
$file = fopen($this->_template,'r');
$this->_file = fread($file,filesize($this->_template));
fclose($file);
$this->_file = str_replace('{' . $this->_var .
'}',$this->_value,$this->_file);
print($this->_file);
} else {
print('<p>Template File Does Not Exists</p>');
}
} else {
print('<p>Template is not sent</p>');
exit;
}
}
}
?>
The page that run's the script simply looks like this:
<?php
//
// LOAD THE TEMPLATING CLASS
//
require_once('tpl.php');
$mm = new mm();
//
// SET CONTENT
//
$sitename = 'Calgary Outdoor Paintball League » Under Heavy
Developement';
$header = 'Welcome to the Calgary Outdoor Paintball League\'s
Official Website';
//
// RUN THE PAGE
//
$mm->assign('sitename',$sitename);
$mm->assign('header',$header);
$mm->run('index');
?>
