PHP eval support in templates
 

I'd like to see support for evaluating php that's built in to the template for phpDig.

Here are two methods to include PHP in templates using XML-like tags.

1. Method One:
   
   In function_phpdig_form.php, look for the following:
   
   PHP Code:

   ---

   $result['form_head'] = "<form action='$result_page' method='get'> 


   ---

   and right before it, insert the following:
   
   PHP Code:

   ---

   $result['put_unique_name_here'] = $do_php_here; 


   ---

   and then in the template, use the following:
   
   Code:

   ---

   <phpdig:put_unique_name_here/>

   ---

2. Method Two:
   
   In search_function.php, look for the following:
   
   PHP Code:

   ---

   $timer->start('Template parsing'); 


   ---

   and right after it, insert the following:
   
   PHP Code:

   ---

   $put_unique_name_here = $do_php_here; 


   ---

   and then in search_function.php, look for the following:
   
   PHP Code:

   ---

   $t_mstrings = compact('title_message', // and so forth 


   ---

   and 'put_unique_name_here' into the line like so:
   
   PHP Code:

   ---

   $t_mstrings = compact('put_unique_name_here','title_message', // and so forth 


   ---

   and then in the template, use the following:
   
   Code:

   ---

   <phpdig:put_unique_name_here/>

   ---

I know a very good method, in which: You don't need to alter all the other search_functions.php files etc. but only need to make a .HTACCESS file and it will parse PHP into HTML documents! Sneaky....

Anyway here it is:
Make a file name called .htaccess and add this code in it:

<Files phpdig.html>
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</Files>

If you're using a different template than phpdig.html ,change the 'phpdig.html' into the file name (Only include for example template.html , not http://www.your_site.com/template.html)

And upload the .htaccess file into the 'templates' directory, I've tried it and it worked!

Cool!

.htaccess

not working for me!
