In this example, we are using the name "getBanner" and passing the
parameters #banner_location_id# and #site_id#. Smarty will look
for a function named insert_getBanner() in your PHP application, passing
the values of #banner_location_id# and #site_id# as the first argument
in an associative array. All insert function names in
in an associative array. All {insert} function names in
your application must be prepended with "insert_" to remedy possible
function name-space conflicts. Your insert_getBanner() function should
do something with the passed values and return the results. These results
are then displayed in the template in place of the insert tag.

In this example, Smarty would call this function:
insert_getBanner(array("lid" => "12345","sid" => "67890"));

If you supply the "script" attribute, this php script will be

It is possible to have portions of the template not

dynamically every time the page is created, even within cached
pages. This works good for things like banners, polls, live
weather, search results, user feedback areas, etc.
