Quick start

Here I'll show you an simple example how to build your first report.

First we write the PHP script

<?php
 // The required inclusion
 require_once('sptpl.php');
require_once('sptpl.inc');
require_once('sptpl_db.php');
 // The class istance
 $t=new sptpl();
 // Load and parse the template file
 $t->LoadTemplate('test1.xml');
 // Set some fields that will be used
 $t->SetVar("name","George");
$bar['foo']='Index foo';
$t->SetVar("bar",$bar);
 // Build the spool file
 $t->run("test1.txt");
?>

Second step, write the configuration file test1.xml

<?xml version='1.0' ?>
 <!-- The opening tag -->
 <template>
 <!-- Start the report definition -->
   <report>
     <!-- Set some text to print as the first row for
    this report -->
     <beginreport>Hi My First Test
    </beginreport>
     <!-- Set the body if our test, one row with
    Hello world. Notice, the field $name was
    declared from the PHP script -->
     <row id='pippo'>
Hello world, my name is {$name}
    </row>
     <!-- And ending the report-->
     <closereport>
End!That's all folk!
    </closereport>

  </report>
 </template>
