Hey.

I've defined a variable in my tpl file

{def $str=""}

When I want to override this variable with

{set $str="my value"}

or

{set $str=$myvalue}

it doesn't work. There is no override and the $str is still empty... Is there anyone who has any idea why I can't override the variable?

OK, I found the Problem - or a Bug.....?!

I used the following code:

{def $str=""}

{switch name=myname match=$node.node_id}
  {case in=array('xx','xx','xx')}
    
    do this

  {/case}
  {case}

    {set $str=$str|append("myvalue")}

  {/case}
{/switch}

and whenever I tried to change die value of $str nothing happened. Later I tried anything to find a mistake in my code an the mistake was, that I mustn't give a name to the "Switch".

Now I have this code:

{def $str=""}

{switch match=$node.node_id}
  {case in=array('xx','xx','xx')}
    
    do this

  {/case}
  {case}

    {set $str=$str|append("myvalue")}

  {/case}
{/switch}

and it works fine :)

But isn't it a bug?? I don't know...
