XML-configured template

DOWNLOAD
This example uses both possible ways to configure this template, it first reads the config.xml which is in the same directory as the template and it reads the xml-data which are inside this template file, surely this doenst make much sense in this example, but it demonstrates how the config might be applied.
You can put the config.xml file anywhere in the 'templateDir' if it is found on the path to the template it will be applied.

This is the XML-part which configures this template, either in the config.xml or/and in this template-file (index.tpl).
