    I am trying to replace a variable $PageNo$ in header of the templte .docx file. However it replace the whole header with the value of variable.

    Below is the script I am using.

    Could some body tell what's wrong with it?

     

    <?php

     

    require_once '../../../classes/CreateDocx.php';

     

    $docx = new CreateDocxFromTemplate('example_addFootnote_2.docx');

     

    // create the Word fragment that is going to replace the variable

    $wf = new WordFragment($docx);




     

    // insert all the content in the Word fragment we are going to use for replacement

    $wf->addText("hello I replaced the variable.");

     

    $docx->replaceVariableByWordFragment(array('PageNo' => $wf), array( 'target' => "header"));

     

    $docx->createDocx('example_replaceVariableByWordFragment_1');

    print "OK";

     

    ?>
