The PAT group has released the latest version of their popular templating library - patTemplate 3.1.0 stable.

After two years of development we finally released patTemplate 3.1.0 as a stable version. The changes since the last beta release are minimal. You can read about all changes since the last stable release in the changelog. patTemplate can be downloaded from our PEAR channel server or easily installed via the PEAR installer.

The patTemplate system helps developers separate out the business logic from the layout and content of their site to make maintenance easier for both the designer and the developer.

Stephan Schmidt has posted a new update to the PHP-Tools blog today converning new releases of patTemplate and patForms.

After I finally finished my book (and my contribution to Exploring PHP) I finally have enough time to work on all of my open source projects again and today made two new releases. patTemplate 3.1.0b1 contains tons of changes since the last stable version. Most of the features that users have been requesting for years have been incorporated into this release, like the possibility to read templates from a database

The other release mentioned is for patForms 0.9.b3 containing lots of bug fixes and features to work with the PEAR installer.

Justin Silverton has posted this brief overview of the patTemplate system - what it is and how it can be used in your site.

patTemplate is a set of classes that allow you to separate your php code from design/output, making your code easier to maintain. To identify a certain part of the page as a template, patTemplate uses XML tags to assign a template a unique name and a various attributes (see patTemplate Tags and attributes for a list of all tags and attributes). When parsing a template, the parser divides the page in several chunks and treats them as separate templates. By using patTemplate's API you can hide, display or repeat a certain template.

He describes the different template types (OddEven, Condition, SimpleCondition) and how to use variables inside the templates. He wraps it up with a quick installation overview, both using PEAR and the manual installation.

In this quick post over on the main site for the patTemplate project, they want to let everyone know that the project is alive and well.

This is just a quick note to let you know, that our project has not died. We are currently in the process of moving all available documentation from our website to the Trac installations we will be using to maintain our projects.

While moving the exsiting documentation, I also added a new page, which contains a tag reference for patTemplate.

The reference gives, in detail, what each tag is for, an example of its usage, and some of the attributes that you can use with it. The five main tags are covered - tmpl, sub, link, var, and comment.
