PHP Eval that evaluates HTML & PHP

Question

I\'m messing around with templating and I\'ve run into a situation where I need to echo to the browser a template that contains html & php. How do I evaluate the PHP and

Answer 1

Use output buffering instead. eval() is notoriously slow.

main.php:

    

    

         10): ?>
            
Greater than 10!
        
            
Less than 10!

Your file:

$title = 'Lorem Ipsum';
$id = 11;

ob_start();
require_once('main.php');
$contents = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

echo $contents;

The output of this will be:

Lorem Ipsum

Greater than 10!
