Hi all,

I would like to know the best way to do so :

Code:
myincludedtemplate1.tpl :
     data1 : {$data1}
     data2 : {$data2}

myincludedtemplate2.tpl :
     content1 : {$data1}
     content2 : {$data2}

myincludertemplate.tpl :
      <table>
     {include file="myincludedtemplate1.tpl"}
     {include file="myincludedtemplate2.tpl"}
      </table>


But with different data in the 2 included files. Well, my constraint is actually to have in the same page a lot of variables with the same name, like $title, $content...
If someone could show me a way to do so, precompilation of included templates, other ways???

Thanks in advance

Perhaps this:

You can pass vars through the include. Here, I assign $data1 and $data2 to various members of different arrays. Adapt to your needs.
Code:
{include file="myincludedtemplate1.tpl" data1=$a.data1 data2=$a.data2}
{include file="myincludedtemplate2.tpl" data1=$b.data1 data2=$b.data2}

I usually only ever assign a single variable to Smarty (the payload) which is a big array of vars. In other words, consider using arrays to handle "namespaces".

Thanks for your answer...

Actually the more simple to me is to fetch in a variable my first template, then clear the cache(if using the same template) and fetch the second template with the other data.

I'm not used to the "template spirit", but I guess it's a good way to do so!

You don't have to clear the cache (particularly if multiple requests for the data will ensue). Simply use multiple cache_id's. It's in the manual, but unfortunately, I can't provide the link at the moment.
