| # Variables assigned from PHP
 | |
| 
 | |
| Variables assigned from PHP are referenced by preceding them with a dollar
 | |
| (`$`) sign.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Examples
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```php
 | |
| <?php
 | |
| use Smarty\Smarty;
 | |
| $smarty = new Smarty();
 | |
| 
 | |
| $smarty->assign('firstname', 'Doug');
 | |
| $smarty->assign('lastname', 'Evans');
 | |
| $smarty->assign('meetingPlace', 'New York');
 | |
| 
 | |
| $smarty->display('index.tpl');
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| `index.tpl` source:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```smarty
 | |
| Hello {$firstname} {$lastname}, glad to see you can make it.
 | |
| <br />
 | |
| {* this will not work as $variables are case sensitive *}
 | |
| This weeks meeting is in {$meetingplace}.
 | |
| {* this will work *}
 | |
| This weeks meeting is in {$meetingPlace}.
 | |
| ```
 | |
|        
 | |
| This above would output:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```html
 | |
| Hello Doug Evans, glad to see you can make it.
 | |
| <br />
 | |
| This weeks meeting is in .
 | |
| This weeks meeting is in New York.
 | |
| ```
 | |
|       
 | |
| ## Associative arrays
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can also reference associative array variables by specifying the key
 | |
| after a dot "." symbol.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```php
 | |
| <?php
 | |
| $smarty->assign('Contacts',
 | |
|     array('fax' => '555-222-9876',
 | |
|           'email' => 'zaphod@slartibartfast.example.com',
 | |
|           'phone' => array('home' => '555-444-3333',
 | |
|                            'cell' => '555-111-1234')
 | |
|                            )
 | |
|          );
 | |
| $smarty->display('index.tpl');
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| `index.tpl` source:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```smarty
 | |
| {$Contacts.fax}<br />
 | |
| {$Contacts.email}<br />
 | |
| {* you can print arrays of arrays as well *}
 | |
| {$Contacts.phone.home}<br />
 | |
| {$Contacts.phone.cell}<br />
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| this will output:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```html
 | |
| 555-222-9876<br />
 | |
| zaphod@slartibartfast.example.com<br />
 | |
| 555-444-3333<br />
 | |
| 555-111-1234<br />
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Array indexes
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can reference arrays by their index, much like native PHP syntax.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```php
 | |
| <?php
 | |
| $smarty->assign('Contacts', array(
 | |
|                            '555-222-9876',
 | |
|                            'zaphod@slartibartfast.example.com',
 | |
|                             array('555-444-3333',
 | |
|                                   '555-111-1234')
 | |
|                             ));
 | |
| $smarty->display('index.tpl');
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| `index.tpl` source:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```smarty
 | |
| {$Contacts[0]}<br />
 | |
| {$Contacts[1]}<br />
 | |
| {* you can print arrays of arrays as well *}
 | |
| {$Contacts[2][0]}<br />
 | |
| {$Contacts[2][1]}<br />
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| This will output:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```html
 | |
| 555-222-9876<br />
 | |
| zaphod@slartibartfast.example.com<br />
 | |
| 555-444-3333<br />
 | |
| 555-111-1234<br />
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Objects
 | |
| 
 | |
| Properties of [objects](../../programmers/advanced-features/advanced-features-objects.md) assigned from PHP
 | |
| can be referenced by specifying the property name after the `->` symbol.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```smarty
 | |
| name:  {$person->name}<br />
 | |
| email: {$person->email}<br />
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| this will output:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```html
 | |
| name:  Zaphod Beeblebrox<br />
 | |
| email: zaphod@slartibartfast.example.com<br />
 | |
| ``` |
