Hi,
I am frustrating with smarty and have motivation to learn it more. I know something about smarty. I can modify cmsms' modules' templates, but that's it.
Question: is it eny sense to buy a book of smarty http://www.packtpub.com/smarty/book when don't have eny expierience of php. I have some experience of other programming languages.
Other question: does CMSMS using same smarty commands which are described on that book or in this website: http://www.smarty.net/ ? For examble I want to use tag {html_select_date} does it work directly on CMSMS (I know this tag works, but for examble).
I hope book will give me information for examble how to handle strings... and so on.
Thank you
-R

CMSMS uses a slightly modified, but (to my knowledge) 100% compatible version of smarty 2.
Therefore any documentation you find on smarty 2 is applicable. There's a whole book on smarty? cool!!
You can also download smarty plugins from smarty.net to your lib/smarty/plugins directory and use them at will.
{html_select_date} is used in a tonne of modules.
