Template Compiler.

Feachures

Handles special tags and replaces them with commands of the php interpreter. Transforms template variables to php variables. It is able recursively execute functions and directives: FOREACH, IF, ELSE, ELSEIF, SWITCH, CASE, BREAK, DEFAULT, INCLUDE, CONTINUE.

There is a possibility of compressing and caching the result.

To control the compilation uses the HTML comment tags. This makes the template friendly and intuitive even for the inexperienced designer.

Requirements

This program requires PHP 5.4+

[$variable] or [$variable.index] is used in special case, ex. style="width:[$variable.width]px"

\__$variable\__ or \__Any words\__ when you need translations into another language

        <li>
            <a href="$menu.link">__$menu.name__</a>
            <!-- IF !empty($menu.sections) -->
                <ul>
                <!-- FOREACH $menu.sections -->
                    <li><a href="$sections.link" style="width:[$sections.width]px">__$sections.title__</a></li>

            <!-- END -->
        </li>
    <!-- END -->
    </ul>
</div>
