    CreateTemplate.ReturnAllVariables in some cases does not return the correct set of variables included in the document. I changed the code to the following, which works for me:

    Original code:
    [code]
    $documentSymbol = explode(self::$_templateSymbol, self::$_document);
    $i = 0;
    foreach ($documentSymbol as $documentSymbolValue) {
    // avoid first and last values, and tag elements
    if ($i == 0 || $i == count($documentSymbol)
    || $documentSymbolValue[0] == '<') {
    $i++;
    continue;
    } else {
    $variables['document'][] = strip_tags($documentSymbolValue);
    $i++;
    }
    }
    [/code]

    My code:
    [code]
    $documentSymbol = explode(self::$_templateSymbol, strip_tags(self::$_document));
    $i = 0;
    foreach ($documentSymbol as $documentSymbolValue) {
    if ($i % 2 == 0) {
    $i++;
    continue;
    } else {
    $variables['document'][] = strip_tags($documentSymbolValue);
    $i++;
    }
    }
    [/code]

    In the case I faced the spellchecker added xml markup directly after the delimiter, so the if-case fired and the loop continued without adding the variable. I think there was a reason you wrote the code the way you did it. So am I missing something?

    Hello,

    Thanks for the code, we'll check it.

    Regards.

    I am having the same issue. Some docx templates have a lot of tags, therefore the last part of following condition:
    [code]
    if ($i == 0 || $i == count($documentSymbol) || $documentSymbolValue[0] == '<')
    [/code]

    is almost always true.
    I modified the code in similar way as mquadrat:
    [code]
    $documentSymbol = explode(self::$_templateSymbol, self::$_document);
    foreach ($documentSymbol as $i => $documentSymbolValue)
    {
    if ($i % 2 != 0)
    $variables['document'][] = strip_tags($documentSymbolValue);
    }
    [/code]

    Please let us know what was the reason you prepared the condition in such form, so we can be sure that our modifications won't break other functionality?

    I am using latest PHPDocx PRO version 2.7
