But as I said, I implement the MVC model without Smarty for clients 
that will tell  their designers to modify the design of the view. In 
this case, beside using {} instead of <?php ?>, I really don't see 
the advantage.

I don't have Dreamweaver, but I know that <?php ?> is flagged as a 
tag, and I'm not sure if this is the case with {}.

Cheers
