$template->displayBegin()

Up: class Template

This method is called after the raw template files, as identified by the constructor, and calls to $template->includeSub which do not use the "after" option, have been assembled but before any of the updates, defined by calls to $template->set or $tag->update, are applied. When this method is called $this->page contains the raw template string, $this->fields is an associative array of all of the substitutions defined by calls to $this->set, $this->tagUpdates contains the accumulated substitutions defined by calls to $tag->update, but $this->dom->length is zero. Therefore if the implementation requires access to the DOM it must call $this->parseHTML().

If the value of 'TITLE' has not been defined the base implementation initializes it from the text contents of the first <h1> tag in the template.

Classes derived from Template usually override or extend this base functionality. For an example see FtTemplate::displayBegin

Next: $template->displayEnd()
