module values are not assigned to smarty template

[prestashop_newuser]

Hi,

I am doing a small module. In that I am fetching some data from the database in hook. The code for hook is like this, in this I just want to assign the value of 

  

public function hookHome($params) {

    $defaultLanguage = (int)(Configuration::get('PS_LANG_DEFAULT'));

    global $cookie, $smarty;

    $value=array();

    $sql_select="SELECT * FROM "._DB_PREFIX_."storeinfo WHERE status = '1'";

    $value=Db::getInstance()->ExecuteS($sql_select);

   // print_r($value);

    



    $smarty->assign('array',$value);

    $smarty->assign('default',$defaultLanguage);

    return $this->display(__FILE__, 'storeinfo.tpl');

  }

  

  In view file 

(storeinfo.tpl)

 I want to show the values thats why I just made

  

{$array|@print_r}

 in storeinfo.tpl but it did not showed anything. Now If I am doing print_r($value) in the public function hookHome($params) {} I am getting the array. But the assigned values in smarty is not showing in .tpl file so can someone kindly tell me what is the problem here..Any help and suggestions will be really appreciable. Thanks

can you insert {$debug} in your .tpl file and then - you will see popup with all available variables

your $array variable appears there? or it doesn't exist at all?
