You could do something like this:

{assign var=someVar value="|"|explode:"1|dollar"}

and then access "1" and "dollar" through 0 and 1 indexes of the "someVar" variable like below,

{$somevar[0]} and {$somevar[1]}

thx for answer. I tried that approach when i dumped the $somevar i can only get "1" nothing more. Any idea? – temp-learn Dec 02 '11 at 12:04
How did you try to access the "1" and "dollar"? – Jan Hančič Dec 02 '11 at 12:07

{$somevar[0]} and {$somevar[1]} – temp-learn Dec 02 '11 at 12:09
i also tried this {print_r|$somevar} this actually displays "1" – temp-learn Dec 02 '11 at 12:09
{assign var=someVar1 value= "1|dollar"} {assign var=someVar value="|"|explode:$somevar1} {$somevar[0]} {$somevar[1]} – temp-learn Dec 02 '11 at 12:11

Isn't smarty case sensetive? You should write {$someVar[0]}. Also try with {$someVar.0} ... sorry my smarty knowledge is a bit rusty :) – Jan Hančič Dec 02 '11 at 12:12
