[Phplib-users] rfe to template.inc

[Mike G. <mi...@op...>]

Hello,

Presently Back-End.org is using template.inc as is and adding in
template header/footer comments with each template just as phpSlash and
(and most other phplib template driven apps likely do).  

In talking to the Back-end.org team though, it seems like the following
modification to template.inc would make it easier for us to ensure that
the file names are accurate and easily accessible.


cvs diff phplib/php/template.inc
Index: phplib/php/template.inc
===================================================================
RCS file:
/cvsroot/back-end/back-end0.7.x/class/phplib/php/template.inc,v
retrieving revision 1.1.1.1
diff -r1.1.1.1 template.inc
909c909,911
<
---
>
> $str = "<!-- START $filename -->' . $str . '<!-- END  $filename -->';
>


If we implement this we'll have a lot of header/footer comments to delete and I'd just like to try to keep this in step with phpSlash if we can.


I'd also like to contribute the following javascript which can just be inserted into a block to easily identify which templates are where.


<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

 function convert(node) {
   if (!node) {node = document.body;}

   switch (node.nodeType) {
     case Node.COMMENT_NODE:
       var text = node.nodeValue;
       if (text.substr(0,7)==" START ") {
         var newNode = createNewNode(text.substr(7));
         node.parentNode.replaceChild(newNode,node);
       }
       break
     case Node.ELEMENT_NODE: 
       for (var i=0;i<node.childNodes.length;i++) {
         convert(node.childNodes[i]);
       }
       break;
     default:
       break;
  }
}

function createNewNode(text) {
  var a = document.createElement("a");
  a.href =
"/admin/BE_editTemplateAdmin.php?submit=edit&file="+escape(text);
  var img = document.createElement("img");
  img.src = "/images/BE/buttons/spacer.gif";
  a.appendChild(img);
  return a;
}
-->
</script>

<input type="button" value="Convert!" onclick="convert()">
