<title>Variables loaded from config files</title>
<para>
Variables that are loaded from the config files are referenced by
enclosing them within hash marks (#), or with the smarty variable
<link
linkend="language.variables.smarty.config">$smarty.config</link>.
The second syntax is useful for embedding into quoted attribute
values.
</para>
<example>
<title>config variables</title>
<para>
foo.conf:
</para>
<programlisting>
<![CDATA[
pageTitle = "This is mine"
bodyBgColor = "#eeeeee"
tableBorderSize = "3"
tableBgColor = "#bbbbbb"
rowBgColor = "#cccccc"
]]>
</programlisting>
<para>
index.tpl:
</para>
<programlisting>
<![CDATA[
{config_load file="foo.conf"}
<html>
<title>{#pageTitle#}</title>
<body bgcolor="{#bodyBgColor#}">
<table border="{#tableBorderSize#}" bgcolor="{#tableBgColor#}">
<tr bgcolor="{#rowBgColor#}">
<td>First</td>
<td>Last</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
]]>
</programlisting>
<para>
index.tpl: (alternate syntax)
</para>
<programlisting>
<![CDATA[
{config_load file="foo.conf"}
<html>
<title>{$smarty.config.pageTitle}</title>
<body bgcolor="{$smarty.config.bodyBgColor}">
<table border="{$smarty.config.tableBorderSize}" bgcolor="{$smarty.config.tableBgColor}">
<tr bgcolor="{$smarty.config.rowBgColor}">
<td>First</td>
<td>Last</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
]]>
</programlisting>
<para>
this will output for both examples:
</para>
<screen>
<![CDATA[
<html>
<title>This is mine</title>
<body bgcolor="#eeeeee">
<table border="3" bgcolor="#bbbbbb">
<tr bgcolor="#cccccc">
<td>First</td>
<td>Last</td>
<td>Address</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

</screen>

<para>
Config file variables cannot be used until
after they are loaded in from a config file. This procedure is
explained later in this document under <link linkend="api.config.load"><command>config_load</command></link>.
</para>
<para>See also <link linkend="language.syntax.variables">Variables</link> and <link linkend="language.variables.smarty">$smarty reserved variables</link></para>
