Hello everyone,

Hope i'm posting the correct place.

I would like to know if anyone tried to implement the phpbb's template system. If so, can he/she give me an usage example ?

If not, then what steps should i follow in order to implement the template system mentioned before ?

I am new to ZF so any advice is very helpful...

Thank you in advance. Have nice day!

take a look at smarty integration into ZF.. it may give you some clues (at least with zends side)
Integrating Smarty with the Zend Framework

Yes, Smarty is super-awesome -- despite all the negative commentary it gets around developers that (are not|don't understand|don't care about) designers.

I found this How To Make Smarty the Default View for Your Zend Action Controllers at engfer(s), with very little tweaks for my specific project, to be an effective solution.

I don't want to force designer to learn a hole new syntax... The template system from phpbb is the best choice for me as it requires no learning from designers / integrators... All the functionality is made from HTML comments...

Anyways, if i manage to integrate this template system / view alternative i will chose Zend Framework as my "weapon"...
