Includes

Top  Previous  Next

Includes are links to another template file within a template file. For example, you could have a template file named template.html with the following contents:

 

This is the template with the [[include_file1.html]] include

 

And also you have another template file include_file1.html in the templates/ directory containing:

 

<b>very nice</b>

 

After processing the template.html file the result would appear as :

 

This is the template with the <b>very nice</b> include.

 

You may use variables, conditions and includes within an include, but you cannot use patterns.Includes are useful for having separate header/footer files and also for using the same template/HTML code in different template files.

 

The following is a portaion real example included as template_search.html that shows a template search. Notice how the header and foolter is included.
