{ldelim}
and {rdelim}
are used for
escaping
template delimiters, by default
{ and }.
You can also use {literal}{/literal}
to escape blocks of text eg Javascript or CSS.
See also the complementary {$smarty.ldelim}
.
Example 7.57. {ldelim}, {rdelim}
{* this will print literal delimiters out of the template *} {ldelim}funcname{rdelim} is how functions look in Smarty!
The above example will output:
{funcname} is how functions look in Smarty!
Another example with some Javascript
<script language="JavaScript"> function foo() {ldelim} ... code ... {rdelim} </script>
will output
<script language="JavaScript"> function foo() { .... code ... } </script>
Example 7.58. Another Javascript example
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> function myJsFunction(){ldelim} alert("The server name\n{$smarty.server.SERVER_NAME}\n{$smarty.server.SERVER_ADDR}"); {rdelim} </script> <a href="javascript:myJsFunction()">Click here for Server Info</a>
