    I guess it's using that $GLOBALS variable, but, I can't understand how to use it. :(

    I use this:
    <?php
global $fecha_trabajo;
$fecha_trabajo = $_POST['fecha'];  <--- receive value from form
$GLOBALS['fd'] = $fecha_trabajo;
$tpl = new Plantilla();
$tpl->display('plantilla.tpl.php');
?>
    PHP:
    And in the other php file called by Smarty template:
    <?php
echo $GLOBALS['fd'];   <-- I trying to show this variable but....
?>
    PHP:
    But show me the same message.

    The code should be like this:
    
<?php
$GLOBALS['fd'] = $_POST['fecha'];
$tpl = new Plantilla();
$tpl->display('plantilla.tpl.php');
?>
    PHP:
    
<?php
echo $fd;
?>

    There is no reason for you to use globals as $_POST is global in itself, just do `echo $_POST['fecha']` in the template and it should work fine.

    I changed that code. And I use $session[], so the variable always is in memory.

    This is a better route to go than what you were previously doing. Be sure to read up on security and vulnerabilities for sessions
