3 dimensional array assigned to smarty pass to javascript

[Jacob Siemaszko]

In my program I want to use a 3 dimensional array to read out and compare the url data. That doesn't matter, but the main thing is, i pass a 3 dimensional array to a template as {test} so it has the following array structure a numeric array, where i pot a associative array in, and there inside is a another numeric array.

$test[0]['name'][0]

Now I want to use javascript to read out the length of the different array's and also the variables but since I cant get it work, can someone help my please? i ll be greatfull

Because of smarty's default curly bracket ({}) tags, you need to use the smarty {literal} tag to echo out your variable value to a javascript one. Remember javaScript is client side, server does not execute it like smarty and php, the user's computer browser executes it.

You can also print it out to a hidden field and read it using javascript. document.getElementById('hiddenFieldsID').value. or using jquery: $('#hiddenFieldID').val()

Good luck,
