How to use Handlebars.js and Smarty how?
I am using Smarty for server-side patterns, and I want to use Handlebars.js for client-side patterns, but with a Smarty couse error, because Handlebars use curly braces like Smarty. I can write the Handlebars template in Smarty literal tags, but this time I cannot use Smarty in the Handlebars template.
For example: I am writing a smarty block function for cleanurl. I do not want to write a cleanurl function for javascript. Therefore, I want to use Smarty and Handlebars.js.
<div class="model-item" id="model-{{id}}"> <a href="{$mainurl}{cu}?com=model&act=view&id={{id}}{/cu}"> {{name}} </a> </div>
You can also use literal tags ... much better than avoiding every curly brace.
{literal} <script id="entry-template" type="text/x-handlebars-template"> {{any_var}} </script> {/literal}

in this section of the shielding documentation. I think that "{ldelim}, {rdelim}" may be what you are looking for ... although it makes the code a little less readable ...
