Sounds like you want to do a str_replace(). The template system I use
works in this fashion -- I have a template HTML page, with certain
keywords of the form {{{NAVIGATION}}}, {{{STYLESHEET}}}, {{{FOOTER}}}},
etc. I have a class that I wrote which simply takes the values of the
variables in my page and swaps them in for the appropriate keyword --
thus, if my nav column was contained by a variable called
$navigation_column, then my class would do something like:
$template_page = "./includes/site_template.inc";
str_replace("{{{NAVIGATION}}}", $navigation_column, $template_page);
This is oversimplified and wouldn't really work (you need to read the
template page into a file handle, etc) but demonstrates the theory.
