How to assign an array within a smarty template file?

Question

I was wondering if it was possible to assign an array to a variable within a Smarty template file? I have tried this

{assign var=\'file\' value = array(\'dir         


        

Answer 1

$smarty->assign("lat",$lat);

{foreach $lat as $latlongval}
    {assign var="myArray" value=","|explode:$latlongval} 
    {$myArray['0']}
    {$myArray['1']}
{/foreach}
