Smarty include paramater not translating
PHP 5.2.0, Apache 2.0, Smarty 2.6.18
I'm working on a multilingual PHP application, using the Smarty / Gettext extension (available on source forge).
The gettext extension works well and allows phrases within smarty templates to be translated.
for example;
<span> {t}Hello World{/t}</span>
becomes (in French)
<span>bonjour monde</span>
The problem is we have a number of custom functions and included templates we need to pass translated parameter text.
for example;
{include file="operations/include/c
generates this error;
Fatal error: Smarty error: [in operations/company/company
Any ideas on how to fix this?

sounds like you use unmatched {t} {/t} pairs (probably forgot to close on {t} }
Not a user of Smarty myself so my help may be somewhat limited, but check the contents of the file you're including. You can see the table title tags are matched, but there may be other in the file that aren't?
mismatched {/t} means there is a {/t} somewhere without an opening {t}.

I know what the error message is trying to say....
But when I have a template with only a single line such as.
{include file="operations/include/c
I get the error.
Without the {t} , {/t} tags the included file works perfectly but without the translation.

You can't include Smarty tags inside a function parameter. Pass Company Contacts as is and apply {t}..{/t} in contact_list.tpl.

Problem with having {t}..{/t} in contact_list.tpl is that the translation file input would look like this within the PO translation file;
{$table_tile}
Rather than;
Company Contacts
I want table_title to represent the context of the include file...
The only other work around I can think of is to hide the translation on the main form and then copy the content over at run time with javascript.
But that's ugly and will confuse the template designers.
Some thing like this;
<span id="text_for_contact_list_
{include file="operations/include/c
Any other suggestions for a more elegant work around ?
Or should I look at hacking the smarty class to parse parameters ?

Something else I should point out as the solution needs to by MuliByte / utf8
As one of the target languages is Chinese.

Thanks for contributing any way.
Just need to work out how to use sourceforge CVS then I can upload my new files.
I'm sure other people out there are having the same issue.
