In the foreach, i repeat the code
"{$version[$key]->getDate()|date_format:"%d/%m/%Y"}" ...

and i receive the message:

"Fatal error: Cannot redeclare smarty_modifier_date_format() (previously declared in
c:\program files\apache group\Apache\htdocs\lib\Smarty\libs\plugins\modifier.date_format.php:30) in
c:\program files\apache group\Apache\htdocs\lib\Smarty\libs\plugins\modifier.Date_format.php on line 44"

because??!

Are you perchance using multiple instances of the Smarty object? If so -- don't.

Why not change the include / require calls to include_once / require_once?

I just looked looked a little more closely at the original post. It is a bit of a PHP quirk.

Seems like there are two different files involved:
- modifier.Date_format.php (custom?); and
- modifier.date_format.php (shipped with Smarty).

Note the differing case. PHP sees these as two different files, even on Windows, so require/include_once can't help. Use only one of date_format or Date_format -- whichever you intend to use -- but not both.
