DESCRIPTION

SLASH_VAR add syntax for an extended version of standard TMPL_VAR HTML::Template tag. It adds possibility to have a placeholder text between this tag and an end-tag </TMPL_VAR> to permit graphic web designer to format text in an WYSIWYG environement and have the same visual result when template is processed by HTML::Template and placeholder is replaced with dynamic text.

There is an internal parameter for the class costructor 'ecp_compatibility_mode' This is used by me because i've an old project called 'ecp' that use a modified vanguard_compatibility_mode that use two '%' chars to delimitate params name (%%parameter_name%%).

So with this plugin you canuse one of this syntax to insert a dynamical text:

 <TMPL_VAR NAME="parameter_name">

 <TMPL_VAR NAME="parameter_name">a placeholder</TMPL_VAR>

 %parameter_name%

 %%parameter_name%% (only valid if 'ecp_compatibility_mode' is set to 1)
