Smarty

Hi

How can I use a multidimensional array value (here $data[index].type) as a key for another normal assigned array (here $types).
Or does exist a better solution?

{section name=index loop=$data}

{$types.$data[index].type}

{/section}

Thanks

AFAIK you cannot do this directly

on {$var.$foo.bar} smarty does
{($var.$foo).bar}, but you want
{$var.($foo.bar)}
(the parentheses are to show precedence, smarty does not know such a thing here)

you have to use an additional variable to get the predecence rigtht:
{assign var=tmp value=$foo.bar}
{$var.$tmp}
