void display
(string template [, string cache_id [, string compile_id]])
This displays the template. Supply a valid template resource
type and path. As an optional second parameter, you can pass a
cache id. See the caching
section for more information.
As an optional third parameter, you can pass a compile id. This
is in the event that you want to compile different versions of
the same template, such as having separate templates compiled
for different languages. Another use for compile_id is when you
use more than one $template_dir but only one $compile_dir. Set
a separate compile_id for each $template_dir, otherwise
templates of the same name will overwrite each other. You can
also set the $compile_id variable once
instead of passing this to each call to display().
Example 13-12. display include("Smarty.class.php");
$smarty = new Smarty;
$smarty->caching = true;
// only do db calls if cache doesn't exist
if(!$smarty->is_cached("index.tpl"))
{
// dummy up some data
$address = "245 N 50th";
$db_data = array(
"City" => "Lincoln",
"State" => "Nebraska",
"Zip" = > "68502"
);
$smarty->assign("Name","Fred");
$smarty->assign("Address",$address);
$smarty->assign($db_data);
}
// display the output
$smarty->display("index.tpl"); |

Use the syntax for template resources to
display files outside of the $template_dir directory.
Example 13-13. function display template resource examples // absolute filepath
$smarty->display("/usr/local/include/templates/header.tpl");
// absolute filepath (same thing)
$smarty->display("file:/usr/local/include/templates/header.tpl");
// windows absolute filepath (MUST use "file:" prefix)
$smarty->display("file:C:/www/pub/templates/header.tpl");
// include from template resource named "db"
$smarty->display("db:header.tpl"); |
