Smarty

Hi,
Just started using smarty....

not sure if this is possible, but i have a field that i read from the db into a variable which i pass to smarty to display on the form,
i have smarty tags inside of that field that i would like to fill when the template is run/loaded... is this possible, i've tried but nothing is displayed

for example:

in the table: field "footer" varchar 79
Thank you for using {mycompanyname}.

in php:
assign(mycompanyname, "hello world")

in .tpl
...stuff
<td>{mycompanyname}</td>
...stuff

Thanks,
johnny

If you fetch a template code from DB, you need to work with it as with template.
But from here it looks like you are trying to create a mess.
Please start by reading Smarty documentation, and use only one source of templates at once, it'll make your life easier.
