Textpattern Resources at textpattern.org

<txp:zem_php> offers an alternative to <?php ?> for executing PHP code.

Features:

• Executes code in context, so things like $thisarticle work as expected
• Code execution can be controlled by disabling the plugin, rather than editing $txpac
• Textpattern tags in the PHP output will be parsed, enabling things like this:

<txp:zem_php>
if ($foo) {
echo "<txp:excerpt />";
}
else {
echo "<txp:body />";
}
</txp:zem_php>

To use, just surround your PHP code in <txp:zem_php> </txp:zem_php> tags. It will work fine in a form or page template.

This probably behaves strangely in some curcumstances, due to the way Textpatten parsing works, so I wouldn’t recommend it for production code. Might be useful for experimenting though.
