Note Submitter: cclarkson at htcomp dot net ---- The example presented by bladescope at googlemail dot com has a couple of syntax errors. This works: <?php $template = "The {color} {object} is in {location}"; $array = array( '{object}' => 'Ball', '{color}' => 'Red', '{location}' => 'The Playground', ); foreach ($array as $search => $replace) { $template = str_replace($search, $replace, $template); } print $template; ?> I did not check it for speed or thoroughly test it, but this function seems to do the same thing more succinctly. <?php function template($array, $template) { return str_replace( array_keys($array), array_values($array), $template ); } echo template( array( '{color}' => 'red', '{object}' => 'ball', '{location}' => 'the playground', ), 'The {color} {object} is in {location}.' ); ?>
