I already have a custom theme running with Smarty 2.6.22 in Drupal 5 and I would like to use smarty also with my own modules.

How do I do that?

Any examples?

Thanks!

Ok, I got it somewhat working. But I needed to comment out this line from themes/engines/smarty/smartytemplate.php:
require_once realpath(ENGINE_PATH.'/inc/common.php');
If it is enabled I get following error:

( ! ) Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /home/frank/mysite/themes/engines/smarty/smartytemplate.php on line 19

And there is no file called common.php in themes/engines/smarty/inc.

Is this package broken or what? I'm using version 5.x-0.1 ( http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/smarty-5.x-0.1.tar.gz ) and 2.6.22 version of Smarty.

Any ideas if this could lead in some problems later on?

But this is it is working (if the above line is removed):

require_once('themes/engines/smarty/smartytemplate.php');

// this is from a function:
$smarty = new SmartyTemplate('modules/mymodule/templates');

$smarty->assign("test","value");

$page_content = $smarty->fetch('index.tpl');

return $page_content; // return content for my module

module/mymodule/templates/index.tpl

<p>Template test for a module. Here's a variable: {$test}</p>
