// Common PHP settings
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Berlin');
ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
$mail_address = 'john@doe.org';
ini_set('sendmail_from', $mail_address);
// Require our libs
require_once('../../phmte.php');
// Init a new Template object with a path to the template
$tpl_path = 'template.html';
$tpl = new HTMLMailTemplate($tpl_path);
// Generate a new TemplateInformation object, where the Variables will be stored
// Several additional engine settings can also be set here, like charset and content-type of the mail, or tagnames inside the template file.
$params = new HTMLMailTemplateInformation();
$params->vars = array( 'OrderNumber' => 'TST0012345',
'Headline1' => 'The Order has been generated',
'Receiver' => $mail_address,
'Documents' => array(
array('DocumentTitle' => 'Document 1', 'DocumentNumber' => '1234567890'),
array('DocumentTitle' => 'Document 2', 'DocumentNumber' => '0987654321')

// Tell the engine to fill the template with these params
$tpl->FillTemplate($params);
// Get the prepared mail and send it
$mail = $tpl->GetMail();
#print nl2br(print_r($mail,true));
$mail->Send();
