I got a problem regarding how to assign a java script variable to a smarty variable. Here is the code snippet.

function getDateInfo(date, wantsClassName)

{                  

    var as_number = Calendar.dateToInt(date); //This as_number is the variable which should be assigned to smarty variable    

}

How can i accomplish this.

any help will be appreciated..

Thanks n advance -- Fero

You can't assign a client-side value to a smarty variable, as smarty is a templating language that runs on the server. Smarty assignments can only be done on the server-side, that is to say, from PHP. E.g.:

$smarty->assign('timestamp',time());

So what you can do is something like:

    $smarty->assign('timestamp',time()); //in your PHP script



    //in your JS

    var currentTS = {$timestamp};

See http://www.smarty.net/manual/en/api.assign.php
