Passing $variable but won't display on page?

pdheady · #1 03-09-2007, 12:16 PM

I'm doing a post with the following:

<input type="hidden" name="popcart" value="1">

It then redirects back to the same page and in the url it is passing the variable popcart=1 in the browser header successfully

I then call the following which fails

{if $popcart eq "1"}
<script language="JavaScript" src="/popup/minicart_adplib.js"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="/popup/minicart.js"></script>
<body onload="show('template01');return true;"></body>
{/if}

I even tried outputting the variable to see if it will post but the system doesn't seem to grab the variables that I assign. Is there something I need to do?

<h2>{$popcart}</h2> <== no output

when you put things in braces, its a smarty variable which is not the same as a html value

Ok I found out how to do it in the home.php file.

$smarty->assign("popcart",$popcart);
