[Templates] Processing Variables as templates

[prev] [thread] [next] [Date index for 2004/08/06]

I need some way to be able to do the following.

We fetch some data from a database that is to be displayed on a page. In 
order to get a couple of buttons ie Edit and Admin I append the 
following here document to the page as follows.

     while($sth->fetchrow_array()) {

         $variables->{CONTENT_NAME} = <<EOF;
[% IF Edit_Authority == "yes" %]
     [% Content_Id = $content_id %]
     [% INCLUDE admin/editor.t %]
[% END %]
EOF
         $variables->{CONTENT_NAME} .= $content;
     }

This variable is then used in a page as follows.

<snip>
     <div id="mainContent">
         [% CONTENT_NAME %]
    </div>
</snip>

What I want is for TT to process the contents of the variable before it 
is displayed. I am sure I have read something simialar to this in the 
Badger book.
