Passing a smarty array value to php object…?

Question

In Smarty: is it possible to call a PHP function (from the controller class) inside the template? there is explained, how to call class methods out of template files.

You nee to assign the object like

$smarty->assign('a', new Controller);

and you can use it like

{$a->foo(5)}

But what, if I want to pass a smarty array value as parameter? It should be something like this:

{foreach from=$dataset item=data}
   {$a->foo($data.id)}
{/foreach}

for sure, this won't work. But how can this issue be handled?
