For good reasons the final decission was NO. |
Can you PM me, why is writing like that is bad?

$tpl = $smarty->createTemplate('mytpl.tpl'); // create template object
$tpl->config_load('my.conf'); // load config file |
Is there a way to get config, without creating a template? |

PHP/C style for loops are usually one of the most difficult things for non-programmers and novice programmers to learn. They often run into infinite loops and other problems.
I'm sure it's too late to mention this now, and it may be a totally stupid, but, since I just thought about it, I'll bring up the question anyway.  What if the for loops were more Basic style?
I.e. simple syntax, no infinite loops.
| Code: |
{for $x = 0 to 5}
HTML here
{/for}
|
| Code: |
{for $x = 5 to 0 step -1}
HTML here
{/for}

Great idea. Lets flesh this out. The new {foreach} syntax and this {for} syntax will be a welcome addition. The traditional for and foreach syntax will also be supported, but the simpler syntaxes will be outlined in the docs.
It does not forgo infinite loops, but it makes an easier read.
