How to use php includes in PP templates?
 

Anyway to use php includes in PP templates? Such as showphoto template in particular?

thanks

Yeah just

include "http://www.yoursite.com/script.php";

if within php code part of the template or

PPPRINT;
include "http://www.yoursite.com/script.php";
echo <<<PPPRINT

if within html code, make sure the PPPRINT; is flush with the margin.

Yep what he says ;)

Thanks. What is "PPPRINT; is flush with the margin" mean?

I tried:

<tr>
<td align="center" width="100%" border="1">$imgdisp</td><td>PPPRINT;
include "http://www.mysite.com/script.php";
echo <<<PPPRINT </td>
</tr>

But it doesn't seem to work?

No it won't try
<tr>
<td align="center" width="100%" border="1">$imgdisp</td><td>
PPPRINT;
include "http://www.mysite.com/script.php";
echo <<<PPPRINT
</td>
</tr>

Yep the PPPRINT statements need to be on there own lines and flush against the page left margin

Getting this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_SL, expecting ',' or ';' in /pictures/templates/vb3enhanced/showphoto.tmpl on line 100

without seeing what your doing and what line 100 is I can not help ;)

This helped me solve my problem.

I didn't have it flush at first... Thanks! :D
