Question

I want to print list of image address in jquery function using php(adodb) and smarty.

i need to this :

 $.lightbox(["/media/photos/tmb/4.jpg", "/media/photos/tmb/3.jpg", "/media/photos/tmb/6.jpg"]);

i try with this (just simple for test) :

 {/literal} {if $photos} $.lightbox(["{"\", \""|implode:$photos}"]); {/if}{literal}

result is :

 $.lightbox(["Array", "Array", "Array", "Array", "Array", "Array", "Array", "Array", "Array", "Array", "Array"]); 

Actually, i need to replace array with images address.

images address (dynamic loop) :

{$relative}/media/photos/tmb/{$photos[i].PID}.jpg

without jquery function, i list images with this methods :

{if $photos}
{section name=i loop=$photos}
{$relative}/media/photos/tmb/{$photos[i].PID}.jpg
{/section}
{/if}

php code:

    $sql            = "SELECT PID, caption FROM photos WHERE AID = " .$aid. " AND status = '1' LIMIT " .$limit;
    $rs             = $conn->execute($sql);
    $photos         = $rs->getrows();
    $smarty->assign('photos', $photos);

how to print list for my need? can i?

The easiest thing to do is assign the array to your template, and use json_encode(). I don’t use Smarty very often, but I believe you can just do:

{$yourImageArray | json_encode}

Edit: Now that you’ve finally told us what your array contains:

Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => 13 [PID] => 13 [1] => => ) [1] => Array ( [0] => 14 [PID] => 14 [1] => => ) [2] => Array ( [0] => 15 [PID] => 15 [1] => => ) [3] => Array ( [0] => 30 [PID] => 30 [1] => salam => salam ) [4] => Array ( [0] => 17 [PID] => 17 [1] => => ) [5] => Array ( [0] => 31 [PID] => 31 [1] => => ) [6] => Array ( [0] => 32 [PID] => 32 [1] => => ) [7] => Array ( [0] => 33 [PID] => 33 [1] => => ) [8] => Array ( [0] => 34 [PID] => 34 [1] => => ))

Here’s what you need to do. In your controller:

$photoFileNames = array();
foreach ($photos as $photo) {
    $photoFileNames[] = $photo['PID'];
}

$smarty->assign('photoFileNamesJSON', json_encode($photoFileNames));

In your template, you can access the array via $photoFileNamesJSON. The next time you post a question, please include all of the information from the start. It will be much easier to provide a more specific answer, if you are specific with your question.
