What are some common pitfalls when trying to output an associative array with Smarty as an HTML table in PHP?

One common pitfall when trying to output an associative array with Smarty as an HTML table in PHP is not properly accessing the array keys and values within the Smarty template. To solve this, you need to loop through the associative array in PHP, assign it to a Smarty variable, and then access the keys and values in the Smarty template using appropriate syntax. 

<?php
// Assuming $data is the associative array you want to output as an HTML table
$smarty->assign('data', $data);

// In your Smarty template file
<table>
    <tr>
        <th>Key</th>
        <th>Value</th>
    </tr>
    {foreach $data as $key => $value}
    <tr>
        <td>{$key}</td>
        <td>{$value}</td>
    </tr>
    {/foreach}
</table>
