Example usage of parse()

<?php
/*include the class*/
include_once('../class.XiTemplate.php');
 
/*instantiate the class and pass the path to your html template file*/
$xitpl = new XiTemplate('templates/parse.tpl');
 
/*assign a value to a template variable.*\
/*In this example {NAME} will be replaced with "XiTemplate"*/
$xitpl->assign('NAME', 'XiTemplate');
 
/*let's make dynamically make a table*/
$rows = 3;
$cols = 4;
 
for ($i = 0; $i < $rows; $i++) /*loop to make the tr's*/
{
  for ($x = 0; $x < $cols; $x++) /*loop to make the td's*/
  {
    $xitpl->assign('VARIABLE', 'row: '.($i+1).', column: '.($x+1));
    /*notice the hierarchy by which blocks must be parsed...*/
    $xitpl->parse('main.tr.td');
  }
  /*...always parse child blocks first*/
  $xitpl->parse('main.tr');
}
 
/*parse the "main" block of the template (the whole page)*/
$xitpl->parse('main');
 
/*send the final page out to the browser*/
$xitpl->out('main');
?>
