I want to include a html snippet from an external url into one page (article). Probably similar things will come up later, so i think a CustomTag insert is the best way to do this.

The template language does not support fetching from url, does it? How should this be done?

The external url is: http://www.evangelische-termine.de/Veranstalter/teaser.php?vid=1099&count=10&t_high=all&t_kat=all

Use the php function 'file_get_contents' defined as a new ezp template operator to fetch external content.
See http://ez.no/products/ez_publish_cms/documentation/development/kernel/custom_template_operators
for detailed information

Override the template.ini file:

[PHP]
PHPOperatorList[file_get_contents]=file_get_contents

Example:

{'http://www.evangelische-termine.de/Veranstalter/teaser.php?vid=1099&count=10&t_high=all&t_kat=all'|file_get_contents}

Greets,
Gab

Thanks! It works very nice.

Just to ask, if i did it the right way:
I created
settings/override/template.ini.append for the PHP function
settings/override/content.ini.append for the custom tags
design/corporate/templates/content/datatype/view/ezxmltags/insert.tpl for the template for the custom tag insert
