From config files
Variables that are loaded from the config files are referenced by enclosing them within #hash_marks#, or with the tplix variable $tplix.config. The later syntax is useful for embedding into quoted attribute values, or accessing variable values such as $tplix.config.$foo.
Example config file - foo.conf:pageTitle = "This is mine"
bodyBgColor = '#eeeeee'
tableBorderSize = 3
tableBgColor = "#bbbbbb"
rowBgColor = "#cccccc"
A template demonstrating the #hash# method:
{config_load file='foo.conf'}
<html>
<title>{#pageTitle#}</title>
<body bgcolor="{#bodyBgColor#}">
<table border="{#tableBorderSize#}" bgcolor="{#tableBgColor#}">
<tr bgcolor="{#rowBgColor#}">
<td>First</td>
<td>Last</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
A template demonstrating the $tplix.config method:
{config_load file='foo.conf'}
<html>
<title>{$tplix.config.pageTitle}</title>
<body bgcolor="{$tplix.config.bodyBgColor}">
<table border="{$tplix.config.tableBorderSize}" bgcolor="{$tplix.config.tableBgColor}">
<tr bgcolor="{$tplix.config.rowBgColor}">
<td>First</td>
<td>Last</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Both examples would output:
<html>
<title>This is mine</title>
<body bgcolor="#eeeeee">
<table border="3" bgcolor="#bbbbbb">
<tr bgcolor="#cccccc">
<td>First</td>
<td>Last</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Config file variables cannot be used until after they are loaded in from a config file. This procedure is explained later in this document under {config_load}.
