This class implements a template engine that supports themes and external template file insertion.

It works by searching and replacing placeholder marks by parameter values in the template files.

It supports defining a major template file that works as a replaceable theme template.

Key Features:

- Single line command usage with the express function
- Morph one template to another
- Recursive insert
- Arbitrary number of insert tags in single line command usage

 Description   : DEV TEMPLATE CLASS

                            ***** The main objective of this class is to statically design
                                  all of your page HTML with your favorite HTML editor
                                  and dynamically insert some parts to it with PHP.
                                  Also change the whole "theme" by changing only
                                  major_html template. (All other template files will
                                  be morphed to it...)

                                  Key features:

                 -Very easy to prepare and use.
                 -Single line usage by "express" function.
                 -Morph one template to another.
                 -Recursive insert
                 -Any number of insert tags altough in single line command usage

History
========

 v0.1: Foundation.
 v0.2 beta: -Single line usage by "express" function.
            -Morph one template to another.
            -Recursive insert
            -Multiple morph and insert tags
 v0.3 beta: -some comments




Known bugs
==========
   Problems may occur if there is more than one morph_tag and one morph_tag encapsulate another.
   This is why i have first designed morphing for single tag usage and its usually adequate.
   

Notes
=====

***** Usually preferred usage is only insert tags (example 1,2) or 
      one morph_tag and multiple insert_tags(example 3)
  
No problems with multiple insert tags...



Examples of most common usage
=============================

 1- Simple Usage:
 $DevTemplate->express("_page1.html","","",Array("date=$date"));

 2- Recursively Insert:
 $DevTemplate->express("_page1.html","","",array("hello=HELLO <!--insert:world-->","world=WORLD"));

 3- Complex Usage:
 $DevTemplate->express("_template.html","_page1.html","mainpart",array("hello=HELLO WORLD !","date=$date","title=This page title inserted dynamically..!"));

 4- Simple Usage Without Exit:
 $output_html=$DevTemplate->express("_page1.html","","",Array("date=$date"),false);

       HTML Tags
       =========
       
       There is only one tag for simple usage <!--insert:name-->
       There are two morph_tags for complex usage <!--start:name--> and <!--end:name-->

See all example files-comments for tags and more information.
