     Thank you Vincent for attaching the file, I appreciate the help.  
I'm not sure this solution is going to work for me (at least how I  
have it defined now). Reason is that the user might chose to override  
the "header.tpl" file, but maybe not override the "footer.tpl". So  
smarty would error out saying that it cannot find "footer.tpl" in the  
user's template dir, as he hasn't provided one.

     I could always make it mandatory that if you override one  
template you must provide all (maybe copy them verbatim to his  
template folder). But this seems a bit more of a hack, and I'd have  
to build in a whole template management function.

     I'd like it to work more like $PATH does in the shell. Basically  
that it first searches the user template dir, and if that isn't found  
the template it's looking for it goes to the main one. Kinda like / 
usr/local/bin overrides /usr/bin by specifying it earlier in the path.

     Yep, I have smarty subclassed like that as per the manual.
