First, create your template: |

```html |

|
<code><pre> |
|

This is my template. My favorite food is {{FOOD}}. |

<code><pre> |

dict.put("food", "cookies"); |

picotemplate can selectively show areas of static content, called "sections". |
|
|
|
It can also loop over these sections using child dictionaries. Consider the |
|
|
|
following example: |
|
|
|
```html |
|
|
|
<code><pre> |
|
|
|
<html> |
|
|
|
<body> |
|

{{FAVORITE_SHOW}} is probably my favorite show. |

Create your template and template dictionary as usual: |
|
|
|
```java |
|
|
|
<code><pre> |
|
|
|
Template template = new Template(new File("mytemplate.tpl")); |
|
|
|
TemplateDictionary dict = new TemplateDictionary(); |
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
</pre></code> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Define our favorite show: |
|
|
|
```java |
|
|
|
<code><pre> |
|
|
|
dict.put("favorite_show", "Happy Days"); |
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
</pre></code> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Now show the section called "goodshows" (Sections are by default hidden, and |
|
|
|
must be explicitly told to be shown): |
|
|
|
```java |
|
|
|
<code><pre> |
|
|
|
dict.show("goodshows"); |
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
</pre></code> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And add some shows for it to loop over: |
|
|
|
```java |
|
|
|
<code><pre> |
|
|
|
TemplateDictionary child1 = dict.createChild("goodshows"); |
|
|
|
child1.put("show", "M.A.S.H"); |
|

TemplateDictionary child2 = dict.createChild("goodshows"); |
|
|
|
child2.put("show", "A-Team"); |
|
|
|
``` |

</pre></code> |
|
