Smarty

[Notromda]

I am working on an MVC framework using Smarty templates, similar in style to Ruby on Rails http://www.rubyonrails.org

I pass in some arguments to a dispatcher like this:

http://hostname/index.php?module=foo&action=index

This ends up loading a template named ./views/foo/index.tpl

if I use another modulenamed bar, it should load ./views/bar/index.tpl

The problem is that the compiled versions overlap, and so I don't get the right output. How do I go about fix this? Do I need to specify a different compile directory for each controller?

They shouldn't overlap if each template has a unique path under the templates dir. If you are using multiple template dirs, then you will also need multiple compile dirs to avoid collisions.

So given the single template_dir = '/view/', templates 'foo/index' and 'bar/index' should each result in different compile files.

indeed, that fixed it. I moved the logic about the subdirectory up a ways to the display() call, and everything is working better. Thanks!
