Smarty help

[island1]

I found this code in the member tpl:

<td class="formleft">{$extra3_text}{$smarty.const.LANG_COLON}</td><td class="formright">{$extra3}</td></tr>

can someone help me place the {$extra3} in another tpl (specifically pm read.tpl)
I wastrying something like this, but it doesnt work:

<td colspan="2">	<p>{$extra3}</p> </td>

thanks for any suggestions.

The reason that doesn't work is because that field isn't available to that template. Each template is assigned after running through a ".php" file and within that file it runs through it's code and outputs data and then assigns it to the template.

What that means is that you won't be able to get that field from within that template. As you have the Designer version of the software there won't be a way that I know of to modify it to get that information. You can find out exactly what fields are available by adding debug=1 to the end of the url. (Any popup blockers you have must be deactivated to make this work)
