Fair enough. I am new to Smarty and playing around a bit, but also trying to
get something done.

Each page in my site has one or more stylesheets depending on where in the site
it is and what design elements it contains. I want to be able to dynamically
add each stylesheet as necessary. So I was imagining template code like this
(assuming arrays worked from config files):

{foreach from=#stylesheets# item=stylesheet_loc}
<link href="{$stylesheet_loc}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
media="screen" />
{/foreach}

How could I implement that without assigning the array
($smarty->assign('stylesheets', array("css1.css", "css2.css"))) to in my php
code?

Thanks,
Todd
