Basically when the 'escaping_strategy' is enabled (in symfony 1.4 it is by defalt) it does not pass the $sf_content for the layout and hence does not display any content. I am working with the author to figure out what the right behavior should be. Do you know what the correct behavior is ? I did a quick search and did not find anything obvious. > Also, have you considered not using a template language? Most symfony > applications use plain old php in templates.. There are multiple reasons. Firstly, I have seen many coders writing code in the view files, that rightfully belongs in controller. Using a simple template langauge discourages it. Secondly, we have many reusable widgets that are template based, and the best way to port them to symfony is if symfony supports Smarty. Finally, it improves readability of code and helps maintenance in long term, especially when lot of people are handling the code. Our eventual goal is to create widgets that are language independant (write a widget once, and call it from PHP, Ruby, ASP etc.) and using a template language is a first step in that. We are working on some pretty exciting stuff in this area. I am actually very impressed that symfony already has support for smarty. This is a very good sign in terms of platform maturity!
