| SYNOPSIS: | |
| require("Smarty.class.php"); | |
| $smarty = new Smarty; | |
| $smarty->assign("Title","My Homepage"); | |
| $smarty->assign("Names",array("John","Gary","Gregg","James")); | |
| $smarty->display("index.tpl"); | |
| DESCRIPTION: | |
| What is Smarty? | |
| Smarty is a template engine for PHP. Many other template engines for PHP | |
| provide basic variable substitution and dynamic block functionality. | |
| Smarty takes a step further to be a "smart" template engine, adding | |
| features such as configuration files, template functions, and variable | |
| modifiers, and making all of this functionality as easy as possible to | |
| use for both programmers and template designers. Smarty also converts | |
| the templates into PHP scripts, eliminating the need to parse the | |
| templates on every invocation. This makes Smarty extremely scalable and | |
| manageable for large application needs. | |
| Some of Smarty's features: | |
| * it is extremely fast | |
| * no template parsing overhead, only compiles once. | |
| * it is smart about recompiling only the template files that have | |
| changed. | |
| * the template language is remarkably extensible via the plugin | |
| architecture. | |
| * configurable template delimiter tag syntax, so you can use | |
| {}, {{}}, <!--{}-->, or whatever you like. | |
| * built-in caching of template output. | |
| * arbitrary template sources (filesystem, databases, etc.) | |
| * template if/elseif/else/endif constructs are passed to the PHP parser, | |
| so the if syntax can be as simple or as complex as you like. | |
| * unlimited nesting of sections, conditionals, etc. allowed | |
| * it is possible to embed PHP code right in your template files, | |
| although not recommended and doubtfully needed since the engine | |
| is so customizable. | |
| * and many more. | |
