SMARTY HELP: how to print a number for -foreach-

[gleem]

If am doing a "foreach" and this is the foreach statement... how do I get smarty to out put a count number for each "foreach" it outputs?

here's the smarty foreach statement I'm using in my CARMA template:

PHP Code:

{foreach from=$carma_comments item=comments} 


Basically just want to show the comment number on a particular gallery and since it stores the comment ID as overall sitewide comment there's no comment number for that gallery in the array.

smarty has a counter function

If you just need the number of the iteration you can use something like this:

PHP Code:

{foreach from=$carma_comments item=comments name=bla}  
    Comment #{$smarty.foreach.bla.iteration}
{/foreach}

No doubt, I do design, marketing, affiliate repping, write articles, html css & push php & smarty code around... just enough to get by at least.

Some people do 1 thing great, I do many things good, and a few things above or below average.
