Hi, You can do this by using the addBlockFile method of ITX.php Just create two template files a main one and a secondary one. Don't forget to put a template variable in your main template where your secondary template is supposed to appear. example : main.html -------------------------- <html><body> Hello {NAME}<br> Here goes your second template :<br>{HEREITGOES}</body></html> 2.html --------------------- This is my second template that I want to include in my first template.<br> It can have a variable in there like this : {MYVAR}<br> I am not sure it works if there is no var in there..?<br> Then in your PHP code, just do : <?php require_once('HTML/ITX.php'); $tpl = new IntegratedTemplateExtension('.'); $tpl->loadTemplatefile('main.html'); $tpl->setVariable('NAME', 'world'); $tpl->addBlockFile('HEREITGOES', 'BLOCK_SECONDTPL', '2.html'); // It creates a new block called BLOCK_SECONDTPL in place // of SECONDTPL which you can use as you want. // For instance : $tpl->setCurrentBlock('BLOCK_SECONDTPL'); $tpl->setVariable('MYVAR', 'This is my var.'); $tpl->parseCurrentBlock(); $tpl->show(); ?> Make sure you are using at least version 1.7 of ITX as previous ones were buggy. This should do the trick. I don't know if that's what you were after, but I don't think ITX is that bad. Smarty is good for some operations though, there are cases where you would want to use one and then the other. It would be cool to have the same sort of API for both of them...
