As mentioned, the Simple Template Parser functions as a divider between the code and the html. So we always have at least two files to edit.

By the way: The examples are part of the STP download so you can (and should) play with them at home!

Example 1
This is a very simple example to demonstrate the basic setup. Program File #1: <?php 
#2: require_once("../stp.inc");
#3: $STP = new parser2;
#4:
#5: $STP->setParam("HELLO","Hello World");
#6: $STP->setTemplate("example1.tmpl");
#7: $STP->parseAndEcho();
#8: ?>
 HTML template file # 0: <?
# 1: <html>
# 2:   <head>
# 3:   <title>Example 1</title>
# 4:   </head>
# 5:   
# 6:   <body>
# 7:   <h1 align="center"><#HELLO#></h1>
# 8:   </body>
# 9: </html>
 So, what does it do here?
First we load the Parser file: 
require_once("./stp.inc");
Now we create a new instance of the parser2 class: 
$STP = new parser2;
Next we set the parameter "HELLO" with the value "Hello World": 
$STP->setParam("HELLO","Hello World");
Now we tell the parser where to find the template to use for the output: 
$STP->setTemplate("example1.tmpl");
Finally, the parser is told to print out the result: 
$STP->parseAndEcho();
In our template file example.tmpl the parser will now find the tag . It will then check if it has a parameter by this name and if so replace it.
See the result

Important:
If the parser does not find a parameter that matches a given tag this tag will be stripped.
