Many other template engines for PHP + provide basic variable substitution and dynamic block functionality. + Smarty takes a step further to be a "smart" template engine, adding + features such as configuration files, template functions, and variable + modifiers, and making all of this functionality as easy as possible to + use for both programmers and template designers. Smarty also converts + the templates into PHP scripts, eliminating the need to parse the + templates on every invocation. This makes Smarty extremely scalable and + manageable for large application needs. + + Some of Smarty's features: + + * it is extremely fast + * no template parsing overhead, only compiles once. + * it is smart about recompiling only the template files that have + changed. + * the template language is remarkably extensible via the plugin + architecture. + * configurable template delimiter tag syntax, so you can use + {}, {{}}, <!--{}-->, or whatever you like. + * built-in caching of template output. + * arbitrary template sources (filesystem, databases, etc.) + * template if/elseif/else/endif constructs are passed to the PHP parser, + so the if syntax can be as simple or as complex as you like. + * unlimited nesting of sections, conditionals, etc. allowed + * it is possible to embed PHP code right in your template files, + although not recommended and doubtfully needed since the engine + is so customizable. + * and many more. + +COPYRIGHT: + Copyright (c) 2001-2005 New Digital Group, Inc.
