    Has anyone else experienced trouble with using the addTemplateVariable function to replace variables in a table? http://www.phpdocx.com/documentation/add_dynamical_variable_templates

    I've tried my own template and the template included with PHPDOCX Pro, but in both cases the script not only replaces the variables, but it creates several rows of the variables after my content is added. Additionally, it creates several copies of my header row in the table, even though no variables are included.

    I wonder if it's a bug?

    Hi,

    The example available in phpdocx pro package is correct, but the one included in Documentation was outdated. Now it's fixed.

    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I have also problem with that.
    When I put in the table header a,b,c,d ... for each column, I get the following result:

    a b c d
    a b c d
    a b c d
    a b c d
    Product A 10 5 5
    Product B 20 30 5
    Product C 25 7 5


    When I change it to A1,B1,C1,D1 it is okay

    thanks

    Hello,
    I have problem with adding item to table template after making changes in file.

    When I have default table from template like:
    [code] Weight (Kg) Price (€)
    $NAME$ $WEIGHT$ $PRICE$
    Total $TOTALWEIGHT$ $TOTALPRICE$
    [/code]
    from the example everything is OK, but when only I'm trying to change var $NAME$ to for example $STARTDATE$ the table is filled with only one row, and the rest values from array are skipped.

    Do you have any idea about this problem / any solution?

    I have the same problem as profeo with populating a table in a template.

    Let's say i have a simple table in my template with the two columns, two rows. The first row is just a header. The second contains the variables $ethnicity$, $total$. The array I pass to $docx->addTemplateVariable is:

    [code]
    Array
    (
    [0] => Array
    (
    [ethnicity] => White
    [total] => 440
    )

    [1] => Array
    (
    [ethnicity] => African American
    [total] => 158
    )

    [2] => Array
    (
    [ethnicity] => Hispanic
    [total] => 176
    )

    [3] => Array
    (
    [ethnicity] => Asian / Pacific Islander
    [total] => 14
    )

    [4] => Array
    (
    [ethnicity] => American Indian
    [total] => 4
    )

    [5] => Array
    (
    [ethnicity] => Other
    [total] => 117
    )

    )

    [/code]

    According to your documentation/ tutorials, I should expect the table in my template to be populated with 6 rows of data. Instead, I only get one row. What do I need to do to troubleshoot this?
