I wonder if anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong here when I attempt to access a configuration file variable within a string:

Code:
<iss.conf>
cVersion      = "v1.0"

<main_menu.tpl>
{config_load file="iss.conf"}
...
{include file="footer.tpl" title="Intranet System {#cVersion#}"}


Running this I get the following error -

Fatal error: Smarty: [in main_menu.tpl line 37]: syntax error: expecting '=' after attribute name 'Students' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 1441) in c:\php\Smarty\libs\Smarty_Compiler.class.php on line 2062

I've tried messing around with the code in various ways but can't get it to work. Confused

Thanks in advance.

You can't nest smarty tags.

Try this:

{include file="footer.tpl" title="Intranet System `$smarty.config.cVersion`"}

It works!!! Excellent!

***

Actually, I tried this earlier, but with ' instead of the ` character...

I've just discovered the location of the ` key on my keyboard.

Many thanks... Very Happy
