Smarty

So I must be missing something here in regards to arrays. If I have existing arrays in php that I don't know the keys or values and I want to assign them smarty vars how would I do that? Something like er this?

$smarty = new Smarty;
foreach ($array as $key=>$val) {
$smarty->assign('smarty_array' array($key => $val));
{

Thanks

you mean you have
$array = array('a1'=>'v1', 'a2'=>'v2')
and want to assign 2 variables to smarty $a1 and $a2 ???

you can do this explicitely:

Thanks you for your response. I kinda do the first way now. Nice to know about the automagic way, thanks. So I assume in examples you gave I would end up with a number of discreet vars named after what ever the index is.

For example:

if I have

[boots]

[php:1:53f4ce0aa1]<?php
$smarty->assign('opponents', $opponents}
$smarty->assign('wins', $wins}
$smarty->assign('losses', $losses}
?>[/php:1:53f4ce0aa1]

Saweeet! I begin to grasp the concept. Thank you!

Runs off to start coding....

One more question o gurus of smarty

How do I assign

[boots]

To make this work, you need to do three subtle things.

The first two apply in all like instances:
1] $opponent_stats[$opponent]['wins'] = "0"; // dynamic key not quoted
2] $smarty->assign('opponents', $opponents); // already an array

The last relates just to the single template statement:
3] {foreach from=$opponents item=opponent} {* use literal name for item *}

Otherwise, its a go!
