$this->template->display ... what does that means?? - El Forum - 03-09-2009

[eluser]il_dandi[/eluser]
I've tring to know an example that I've found ... linkster

in many pages I see $this->template->

what does that mean??



I found it in this function


function edit($id)
{
$this->template->metas('title', 'Administration Backend :: Categories :: Edit');

$this->load->helper('form');

$data['category'] = $this->listings->get_category($id);

if ( ! $this->_validate_form( $data['category']->name ) )
{
$this->template->display('admin/categories/edit', $data);
}
else
{
$this->listings->update_category($id);
$this->session->set_flashdata('msg', 'Category Updated');
redirect('admin/categories');
}
}



and in this function:


function Categories()
{
parent::MY_Admin();

// Load required classes
$this->load->model('listings_model', 'listings');
$this->load->library('validation');

// Template Settings
$this->template->metas('title', 'Administration Backend :: Categories');
}



Can you help me to know how (and where) to use "template"


Thanks

I don't think so, because the library you mentioned is called parser rather than template

I'd say they used the Template Library written by Colin Williams:

I agree. Apologies. It crossed my mind as I hit the "Submit Post" button, but I just thought "Naaaah!".

Note to self: be more thorough!

Did you download and install the above library?
Did you load the library?

Read the userguide:

I copyed the template.php in libraries folder

I see

Fatal error: Call to undefined function to_entities() in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/life/system/application/views/template.php on line 14

where in my template file I have

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title><?=to_entities($site_name.' | '.$title)?></title>
<meta name="Description" content="<?=to_entities($meta_description)?>" />
<meta name="Keywords" content="<?=to_entities($meta_keywords)?>" />

If I use the view template.php that I've found in your link (and not the template.php view that I've in my linkster example) I see this:

tal error: Call to undefined method CI_Template::metas() in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/app/system/application/controllers/admin/test.php on line 20

Thanks
