My question is on how to structure templates. Specifically, I am trying to build "widgets" or "components". Here's a concrete example, I would like to build some fancy tables, with who knows what kind of html. In php I could write:

Code:

function build_fancy_table ($contents) {
... do something ...
}

build_fancy_table (array("A", "B", "C"));
build_fancy_table (array("D", "E", "F"));

How do I do the same thing for Smarty? The closest I see is Smarty's {include} directive. But this requires me to create a template file for each function - yes? I have to say, this seems unwieldy.

So what's the solution? One function per template file? Forget about using functions? Something else?

TIA
