History of StringRepeatPlugin

Author: Ken Stanley <smarty@kennethpaul.com>

This plugin gives you the same results as the native PHP function str_repeat does. There

are three attributes to the function: STRING (String to repeat) and COUNT (How many times to repeat) and ASSIGN which allows you to stuff the results into a template variable to use

as many times throughout the template as you wish.

function smarty_function_str_repeat($params, &$smarty)

static $string = array();

static $count = array();

static $assign = "";

extract($params);

if (!empty($assign))

$smarty->assign($assign, str_repeat($string[0],$count[0]));

else

echo str_repeat($string[0],$count[0]);
