Smarty

[rado]

Hi, I've read a lot threads about Smarty sections and arrays but couldn't find my problem.
I have 2 nested sections:
{section name="sm_row" loop=$rownum} and {section name="sm_col" loop=$rowanz[$smarty.section.sm_row.index]}
my array is of the style: sitemap[x][y].item
I try to access this array in smarty like this:
{$sitemap[$smarty.section.sm_row.index][$smarty.section.sm_col.index].sub2}
Don't get any results. Not even an error. Just nothing.
I have other templates with single sections and single arrays same style, they work pretty well.
Thx for any hints, Rado

Ok I could be wrong but I''m sure Boots or somebody will correct me..


I think the problem must be the second section. That would be the place wher I would be looking. Maybe how the loops work
Could you eleborate how this array look like. Maybe print_r

Me correct someone?

Actually, I'd just try to side-step this issue entirely by switching to foreach loops or using intermediate assignments. Sections can be a pain, especially when nested. Things like [$smarty.section.sm_row.index] make me queasy.

ASIDE:
Sections are sometimes a little more managable if you use the (I believe depracated, oh horrors) little-known % syntax (eg. [%sm_row.index%]) but unfortunately, that is not really a *recommended* feature. But I'm no snitch and as I'm not privvy to the reasons it has been deprecated, I can't see why it shouldn't at least be mentioned since it is still supported--for now.

I didn't test the issue, so I can't give a more definitive answer--sorry!

to me (knowing php's foreach) foreach is much easier to grasp than section, but anyway:

{$sitemap[$smarty.section.sm_row.index][$smarty.section.sm_col.index].sub2}
is not working, for reasons unknown to me, but it boils down to
{$sitemap[sm_row][sm_col].sub2} anyway.

i didn't run it, but it looks much better regarding the php-code that smarty generates for the latter.
