I'm converting an old Smarty template setup into strict HTML/CSS + PHP. Can someone explain what the snippet of code is doing?
$grading_periods[gps].grading_periodHere is the line of code that assigns it.
$tpl->assign('grading_periods',$grading_periods);Thanks
It's probably an array, where in the template it is used inside a foreach loop. Without more of the tpl it is hard to say.
$grading_periods[gps].grading_period
That basically tells the server to append a constant to an array and the constant grading_period would have been made with the define() function.
$tpl->assign('grading_periods',$grading_periods);
That on its own would be invalid code so in other words that code has been made possible by code before it. And guessing it assigns the string grading_periods or the constant grading_periods with a variable to its parrent.
Without seeing all of the code I can only guess that is what is happening but there is a good chance the answer to the first quote is right.
