Hi,

i would like to know if you are a lot to use PHP templates for your web
application or web sites ?
if yes, which one do you use (smarty, pear, yapter, phplib,...) ?
and for which reason ? what is/are the advantages over the others ?

thanks a lot,

I'd vote smarty or using xslt; smarty is very good and nine out of 10 designers I know prefer it.

XSLT is for transforming XML documents, so not good for use as a PHP
template!

I guess it depends how you program, personally I like to program everything API style nowadays, dumping out my script output/objects as XML then transforming where needed with XSL; you can do it client side or server side using http://php.net/manual/en/book.xsl.php - it is a nice portable way of doing things (especially when having multiple front ends (or using the same system for multiple sites), however as a standard stick these variables into this bit of the (x)html then a conventional "template engine" is what you need.
