I'm +1 for adding this, too. I know the reason this was not added to Smarty is, that this does not work under php4. Smarty would generate broken php code under php4 when doing {$foo->bar()->baz()}. I don't think that the possible impact on php4 is such a big deal. Some template code that did not compile before (Smarty syntax error) does now throw a php syntax error. But the benefits for php5 are there - and counting the number of requests for this feature the demand seems high. greetings messju On Sun, Dec 09, 2007 at 01:27:50PM -0200, Diego Feitosa wrote: > Hi all, > > Today, working with Smarty, I realized that a simple feature (chained > method calls) was not present...
