Re: [Phpwiki-talk] HTML in plugins

[Carsten K. <car...@us...>]

Hi Loyd,

Yes the HelloWorld plugin comments are a little vague and out of date, 
the returned value should now use the HTML class functions not raw 
strings. Try something like this:

     $MOTD = "One moon shows in every pool;\nIn every pool, the one 
moon.";
     $MOTD = explode("\n", htmlentities($MOTD)); // make an array to 
walk through later

     $html = HTML(); // new HTML object
     foreach ($MOTD as $line)
         $html->pushContent($line, HTML::br()); // add each line to the 
html object

     $html->unshiftContent(HTML::h2(_("Message of the Day")));

     return $html;
