<p>Have a look at the old Anatomy of the Default Theme document. You can read about the basic structure of a theme and how Smarty works. This is an old document, so it still uses&nbsp;tables to control the layout (now we mainly use div and span), but the general structure of a theme has not changed much.</p>

<p>You can think of Smarty as a placeholder for a piece of data, kind of like a variable. In your PHP script you can assign values (including snippets of HTML) to smarty variables, and they will be output in the theme at the desired location.</p>
