Adding Javascript To Smarty Templates
I was figuring out how to include Javascript in Smarty templates this afternoon, because you can’t include them directly. After digging around a bit, I realised that all you had to do was to include the Javascript code within {literal}{/literal} tags, like this: {literal} <script type="text/javascript"> var currentTime = new Date() var year = currentTime.getFullYear() [...]

I was looking around for the class to format a number to 2 decimal places while I was coding Java, or specifically JSP, and I found it. First, you need to import the DecimalFormat class, so have this line at the top of your Java file: import java.text.DecimalFormat; Or if you’re running JSP: <%@page import="java.text.DecimalFormat" [...]
