TPL file help

[Guest Kelvin]

Hi,

Not sure if this is out of topic. Moderator, if this is out of topic just let me know.

I am quite new to CubeCart, and new to CSS, TPL, PHP in fact. I am just starting to learn and come around this that I don't understand.

In the /global/index.tpl file, all the build-in boxes, search form, etc are in separate file. And this file just calls those file to place them in the right place. So we have things like:

{SEARCH_FORM}

{CATEGORIES}

{PAGE_CONTENT}

etc...

My question is, is there some place that specify where to link to this files? I know if you use PHP you can use the

<?php include("filename.php"); ?>

But here they just use the curly bracket. If I want to do a new box and put them into the separate file like cubecart did, how should i go about naming the file? How to I ensure that they can read my new file?

Thanks.

Regards,

Kelvin

Go to cubecart.org and look for a tutorial on creating boxes.
