templates

I'm just trying to understand the Templating(system). If you use MVC in your web application then you don't need to use something like Smarty(template engine) as you are already separating application code from presentation code anyway by using MVC right? please correct me?

So am i correct in thinking it's MVC OR Templating or do you use both in your apps?If any one could explain this in detail it would be great.

Thank you in advance;-)
