<h1>TStatements</h1>
<com:DocLink ClassPath="System.Web.UI.WebControls.TStatements" />

<p>
<tt>TStatements</tt> evaluates a sequence of PHP statements and displays the content rendered by the statements. To specify the PHP statements to be evaluated, set the <tt>Statements</tt> property. For example, the following component tag displays the current time on the Web page,
</p>
<com:TTextHighlighter Language="prado" CssClass="source">
&lt;com:TStatements&gt;
  &lt;prop:Statements&gt;
  setlocale(LC_ALL, 'nl_NL');
  echo strftime("%A %e %B %Y",time());
  &lt;/prop:Statements&gt;
&lt;/com:TStatements&gt;
</com:TTextHighlighter>

<p>
Note, <tt>TStatements</tt> evaluates the PHP statements during the rendering control lifecycle. Unlike <tt>TExpression</tt>, <tt>TStatements</tt> only displays the content 'echoed' within the statements.
</p>

<p>
The context of the statements in a <tt>TStatements</tt> control is the control itself. That is, <tt>$this</tt> represents the control object if it is present in the statements. For example, the following statement tag will display the title of the page containing the <tt>TStatements</tt> control.
</p>
<com:TTextHighlighter Language="prado" CssClass="source">
&lt;com:TStatements&gt;
  &lt;prop:Statements&gt;
  $page=$this->Page;
  echo $page->Title;
  &lt;/prop:Statements&gt;
&lt;/com:TStatements&gt;
</com:TTextHighlighter>

<p>
Be aware, since <tt>TStatements</tt> allows execution of arbitrary PHP code, in general you should not use it to evaluate PHP code submitted by your application users.
