To prevent bulky cache and compile dirs a function like the one below could be added. This function must be call after the compile_dir is set. /** * This method check the current version of Smarty. On different * versions the compiled and cached templates are deleted. * * @access public */ function clear_invalid_files() { $fname = $this->compile_dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . '.version-' . $this->_version; if (!file_exists($fname)) { $this->clear_all_cache(); $this->clear_compiled_tpl(); touch($fname); } } Greetings, Jan Rosier * The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes. - Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill *
