Smarty

Hi everyone,

When I was using Smarty 2, I often used the html_table_adv block plugin that worked pretty well.
http://smarty.incutio.com/?page=HtmlTableAdvPlugin

Now I'm using Smarty3 and put the same file block.html_table_adv.php into the libs/plugins directory.

Now, I've got a "Fatal error: Call to undefined function html_table_adv() "

The only way I found to get it work was to rename the function "smarty_block_html_table_adv($params, $content, &$smarty)" to "html_table_adv($params, $content, &$smarty)" and to write the following lines into my master PHP file :


include("/var/www/library/inc/Smarty3/libs/plugins/block.html_table_adv.php");
$smarty->registerPlugin("block","html_table_adv", "html_table_adv");

That's not really comfortable... On the other hand, the documentation tells :

The plugins directory can be a string containing a path or an array containing multiple paths. To install a plugin, simply place it in one of the directories and Smarty will use it automatically.

Do you know what's wrong ?

Thanks a lot,
Ben

There is no problem when using the orignal block.html_table_adv.php plugin file located in the lib/plugins folder. There is no need to rename and register the function.

It looks like a html_table_adv was registered when the template was compiled first and it was removed later, Note if you make modifications in your script like changing something like registering plugins you must make sure that all templates get recompiled. Smarty can not detect changes like this automatically, you should delete old cache and compiled files.

Hey !

Sorry for not replying sooner.

I deleted the compiled file. Everything works fine now. Thank you !
