The name of the variable to determine # of loop iterations
start
integer
No
0
The index position that the section will begin looping. If the value is negative, the start position is calculated from the end of the array. For example, if there are seven values in the loop array and start is -2, the start index is 5. Invalid values (values outside of the length of the loop array) are automatically truncated to the closest valid value.
step
integer
No
1
The step value that will be used to traverse the loop array. For example, step=2 will loop on index 0,2,4, etc. If step is negative, it will step through the array backwards.
max
integer
No
1
Sets the maximum number of times the section will loop.
模板的 section 用於遍曆數組中的數據. section 標簽必須成對出現. 必須設置 name 和 loop 屬性. 名稱可以是包含字母、數字和下劃線的任意組合. 可以嵌套但必須保證嵌套的 name 唯一. 變量 loop (通常是數組)決定循環執行的次數. 當需要在 section 循環內輸出變量時，必須在變量後加上中括號包含著的 name 變量. sectionelse 當 loop 變量無值時被執行.
Example 7-15. section
例 7-15. section 函數演示
{* this example will print out all the values of the $custid array *}
{section name=customer loop=$custid}
id: {$custid[customer]}<br>
{/section}
OUTPUT:
id: 1000<br>
id: 1001<br>
id: 1002<br>
例 7-16.loop 變量演示
{* the loop variable only determines the number of times to loop.
you can access any variable from the template within the section.
This example assumes that $custid, $name and $address are all
arrays containing the same number of values *}
{section name=customer loop=$custid}
id: {$custid[customer]}<br>
name: {$name[customer]}<br>
address: {$address[customer]}<br>
<p>
{/section}
OUTPUT:
id: 1000<br>
name: John Smith<br>
address: 253 N 45th<br>

例 7-17. section 名稱演示
{* the name of the section can be anything you like,
and it is used to reference the data within the section *}
{section name=mydata loop=$custid}
id: {$custid[mydata]}<br>
name: {$name[mydata]}<br>
address: {$address[mydata]}<br>
<p>
{/section}
例 7-18. 嵌套 section 演示
{* sections can be nested as deep as you like. With nested sections,
you can access complex data structures, such as multi-dimensional
arrays. In this example, $contact_type[customer] is an array of
contact types for the current customer. *}
{section name=customer loop=$custid}
id: {$custid[customer]}<br>
name: {$name[customer]}<br>
address: {$address[customer]}<br>
{section name=contact loop=$contact_type[customer]}
{$contact_type[customer][contact]}: {$contact_info[customer][contact]}<br>
{/section}
<p>
{/section}
