I'd recommend not using Smarty since it's a template system for PHP, which is it's own template system. Don't use a template system for a template system. Many in this list will express the same opinion about Smarty when asked.


Ya, you can use php as a template engine, but smarty does many things.

   * Has its own varible scope.
   * Has magic functions for html options, checkboxes, radio buttons
   * Makes a true mvc envrioment.

Granted you can create all these features on your own, but why rebuild the wheel, smarty is easy to learn, well documentated, well maintained, and with its caching ability is almost as fast as running without it.
