I don't see anything that will help you right now.

The two procedures which you can use to parse a template are
template::adp_parse
and
template::adp_include

These both take a path to a file.

You might look at template::adp_include and create a complementary procedure that takes a string instead of a file path.

Dave,

Thanks for the help. I finally found the solution elsewhere on the forum. Here's the post, by Dan Wickstrom:

The key piece I needed was template::adp_compile, which can accept either a string or a filename: https://openacs.org/api-doc/proc-view?proc=template%3A%3Aadp_compile

Kind regards,
Justis
