Smarty & variables inside a template?

[rwc]

I've got the following array I want to pass to smarty:
a apple
a artichoke
b banana

I want the output to look like:
a 2 items
apple
articoke

b 1 item
banana

Is there an easy way to do this inside of the template?

Thanks!
rwc

umm... I think I'm reading this wrong. Are you saying that your array is
like this: ???

array (
'a' => 'apple',
'a' => 'artichoke',
'b' => 'banana'
};

or like this:

array (
0 => 'a apple',
1 => 'a artichoke',
2 => 'b banana'
};

That array only has two elements - artichoke stomps apple.

<pre>
<?php
var_dump(array (
'a' => 'apple',
'a' => 'artichoke',
'b' => 'banana'
));
?>

array(2) {
["a"]=>
string(9) "artichoke"
["b"]=>
string(6) "banana"
}

That can't be done...

<?php
$test= array (
'a' => 'apple',
'a' => 'artichoke',
'b' => 'banana'
);
print_r($test);
?>

Results in:

Array
(
[a] => artichoke
[b] => banana
)
