Create an XML or INI file for your site's configuration. Values from one section can be automatically used in other sections using place holders in the form {SECTION/VALUE}.

The configuration can be loaded as constants or into the GLOBALS array simply by calling a method, make_section_constants() and make_section_globals(), respectively.

Special placeholders can be used as well. The following placeholders are supported:

{_DIRNAMEOFFILE_} (directory to the containing configuration file)
{_CONFIGFILE_} (full path to the containing configuration file)
{_THISFILE_} (same as DIRNAMEOFFILE)
{_APPURL_} (value of $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])
