Back to an earlier topic of templ. arg. parsing... Seeing this: > eg: > {assign var=temp value=$PRODUCT.NAME|strtolower} my question is: is the currently favored {note text="sdfsdf"} {err text="sdsdf" fatal=1} syntax still "sacral" nowadays, instead of {note "sdsdf"} {err "sdfsdf" fatal} ? Obviously, the latter form has its clear merits for template users. (I'm sure everybody agrees this. So far so good.) (Note also: my own old, simple, preg_...-based PHP template parser did support the latter, and I'd been *very grateful* to it for that... :) It had other problems, though, like nobody maintained it after a while... ;) ) So, please, I hereby BEG you... Please, add this feature and drop the rigid adherance to the superfluous arg="afsfadf" syntax! (Any good reasons against? I saw some arguments earlier that said this had to do with XHTML syntax. But, well, AFAIK, XHTML has exactly nothing to do with Smarty templates, especially with the unquoted syntagx mentioned at the top of this msg. So, that is not a particularly good reason.) Oh, BTW: {if 0} (and more?) already *is* officially supported... So? Can we hope? Thanks, Sz.
