TalkPHP - View Single Post - my way of templating, is this a good method?

This is more of a general comment than anything particularly specific to templating but remember that str_replace can accept arrays for the first three arguments (respectively: search, replace, subject). This saves the overhead of calling the same function more than once in succesion, and prevents you from repeating code unnecessarily. More simply, you could use:

PHP Code:

$html = str_replace(array('%fname%', '%lname%'), array($firstname, $lastname), $html);
