$smarty = new smarty();
{section name=id loop=$variable} {if $var == condition} | - smarty
something to do | | + libs
element : {$variable[id]} | | [Link]
Assigning Variables {/section} {elseif $var == condition} | - templates
something to do | | [Link]
General Format {else} | + templates_c [must be 0777]
$smarty->assign(”var”,”value”); {foreach item=curItem from=$items} | + configs

| my_other_scripts.php
$smarty->assign(”who”, “world”);
{/foreach} {/if } | blah_blah_script.php
