Here's what my template table looks like:
CREATE TABLE templates (
id tinyint(4) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
name varchar(16) NOT NULL default '',
template text NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id),
UNIQUE KEY name (name)
)
Then here is my template function that preps the data for use with eval():
function template($name, $set="main"){
global $tb_templates;
$sql = "
select
*
from
$tb_templates
where
name = '$name'
";
if($query = sql_query($sql)){
if(sql_num_rows($query)==1){
$array = sql_fetch_array($query);
$template =
str_replace("\\'","'",addslashes($array["template"]));
} else {
$template = $name . " template not found.";
}
}
return $template;
}
Then here is how to use eval() properly:
$template_name = template("template_name");
eval("\$template_name = \"$template_name\";");
This will parse all your $vars you store in the templates.
