Inserting php output in an html file

Question

I saw some html that displays the results of a PHP code just by adding {#name}

<html>
  <body>
     {#name}
  </body>
</html>

How can i do that?

I have been looking around and I cant find anything that shows me how to do this. Thanks!

That's not PHP, so it must be part of a templating system that happens to use PHP. — Marc B

What you saw was probably some sort of template system. If that is the case, the PHP script reads the template, and then replaces all instances of {#name} with the contents of the variable $name.

An example of one such template system would be Smarty.

Note that this requires either PHP 5.4, or that short_tags be On in the PHP configuration.
