How do I create a new custom page

Click here to download this example

In the following example we will create a destination page for Vancouver
Create a new file and save it as vancouver.php in the root directory were you install the travel site
paste the following into the file

<?php
require('../config.inc.php');
require('../smarty/Smarty.class.php');
require ($inc_path."/common.php");
$template = "vancouver.html";
$smarty->display($template);
?>

now create a new file called vancouver.html and save it into the templates directory.
if you want to have it in a subdirectory change the following line in the vancouver.php file your created
from
$template = "vancouver.html";
to
$template = "mydirectory/vancouver.html";

 

 You now have a page that you can load by pointing your browser to http://www.yoursite.com/vancouver.php
Now we will add some featured hotels
Open the Vancouver.php file and paste the below lines after the last require line

 

$Hotels[] = hotelsearch("Vancouver","BC","CA");

 if ($Hotels != false){
$smarty->assign('Locations', $Hotels);
}


Now open the template
And paste the following

 

<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
  <tr class="hotelheader" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
    <td width="20" height="20" >&nbsp;</td>
    <td height="20"   align="left"><b>
     <!--{$Locations[id].Hotels[hotelid].name|truncate:40}-->
