Smarty for Beginners
(Page 1 of 5 )
Join Hermawan as he shows you the basic of the Smarty templating system.
With this tutorial I aim to explain how to use the Smarty Template Engine in the simplest terms so even beginning coders of PHP can understand how to use it as their primary template engine.
By reading this tutorial I presume that all of you have the idea of what Smarty can do for you and how it is an amazing template engine which has speed, portability and stability.
Getting Started
The first thing you need to do is download the distribution from the download section on its official site. Save it on your computer then unzip it somewhere in your harddrive. There is a folder named "libs" on your extracted files. Upload that "libs" folder on your webhosting account and rename it as "smarty".
Next, create a sub folder on your web directory; let's say your created subfolder is "smartyrules", so now you can access that folder using your browser by typing this address http://www.domain.com/smartyrules.
Inside that folder you should create another two subfolders, called "html" and "compile". I'll explain to you later why this is necessary. If you use a *nix distribution then you need to CHMOD 777 to the folder "compile", but if you use Windows then you won't need to do that.
