# Basic Syntax
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A simple Smarty template could look like this:
|
||
|
|
```smarty
|
||
|
|
<h1>{$title|escape}</h1>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
{foreach $cities as $city}
|
||
|
|
<li>{$city.name|escape} ({$city.population})</li>
|
||
|
|
{foreachelse}
|
||
|
|
<li>no cities found</li>
|
||
|
|
{/foreach}
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All Smarty template tags are enclosed within delimiters. By default
|
||
|
|
these are `{` and `}`, but they can be
|
||
|
|
[changed](../../designers/language-basic-syntax/language-escaping.md).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For the examples in this manual, we will assume that you are using the
|
||
|
|
default delimiters. In Smarty, all content outside of delimiters is
|
||
|
|
displayed as static content, or unchanged. When Smarty encounters
|
||
|
|
template tags, it attempts to interpret them, and displays the
|
||
|
|
appropriate output in their place.
|
||
|
|
|
