Hello,

Just looking for some guidance on how to add in some em tags within smarty

In my template is the following code:

{if $page_title}
    <h1>{$page_title|escape}</h1>
{/if}

What I would like to do, is detect whether the title is more than one word, and if it is wrap the subsquent words in em tags, so I can style them different.

So for example this is what i want to achieve:

<h1>New <em>Arrivals</em></h1>

I tried to write some code using the same syntax as the rest of the smarty template, like so:

{if $page_title}
	{$space_location = strpos($page_title," "); }{*finds the location of the first space, if there is one*}
	{if $space_location}{*if there is a space (a second word exists in the subject)*}
		{*take the location between first position and space and add an em tag*}
		{$thisPageTitle = substr($page_title, 0, $space_location) . "<em>" . substr($page_title, $space_location)}
		{*add a closing em tag to end of string*}
		{$thisPageTitle = thisPageTitle . "</em>"}
	{else}
    	{$thisPageTitle = $page_title}
	{/if}
	<h1>{$thisPageTitle|escape}</h1>
{/if}

However this actually doesn't work, so I was wondering if it is possible to do what I want and if so how would I do that??


Many Thanks!!!

You can use this method which acts similar to a split:

{ assign var=pageTitleArray value=" "|explode:$page_title }
