Using <script type='text/html'>

While looking for a more manageable way to maintain my Mustache templates, I came across the icanhaz, which promotes putting your templates in your DOM using:

<script type='text/html' id='your-template>
    // Template in here
</script>

Being a bit of a performance nut, I was nervous about putting my templates into the DOM like this for a couple of reasons:

Goodbye old friend, hello new friends!

Goodbye old friend, hello new friends!

The Symphony 2.3 release opens up a whole new range of possibilities for developers to create awesome sites and applications. We've cleaned up a lot of the codebase and we are always looking at ways to make it leaner and more efficient. Because of this reason, we've decided that the Symphony 2.3 line will be the final releases that we test against PHP5.2.

We feel that with the recent release of PHP 5.4, now is a good time to end our relationship and look forward to the new possibilities that developing with a PHP 5.3+ codebase brings.

Symphony 2.3 Markup Transition

Markup and You

Symphony 2.3 features a significantly improved UI over it's predecessors due to the hard work of the UX Working Group and contributions by other dedicated members of the Symphony community. In making these changes, there's been a number of minor updates to the HTML, CSS and JS throughout the backend. The purpose of this guide is to help document some of these new features, and outline differences that extension developers can implement while updating their extension for 2.3. Eventually a dedicated style guide for Symphony will be available, but this will fill the void for the meantime.

Introducing the XML Importer's prepareImportValue function

Introducing the XML Importer's prepareImportValue function

The XML Importer extension is widely used to help users import XML content into their Symphony sections. Developers enter a URL that returns XML and then write XPath to map values to their corresponding fields, but sometimes this results in a field not receiving a value, an incorrect value, or the XML Importer failing to import anything.

While not always the case, sometimes the XPath could be wrong, namespaces weren't added or you've discovered a bug (log it, but it can also be because a Field doesn't know how take the value you've given it and save it. This short article will explain how you can ensure that your field is compatible with the XML Importer, thanks to the prepareImportValue function.

Why is it needed?

Fields in Symphony have two existing function's, checkPostFieldData and [processRawFieldData]
