Why don't you cast it before attaching it to the view. There is no reason to pass the view data that needs to be further processed.

$int = (int) $float;

$smarty->assign(array(
   'number' = $int
));

If you really must get the integer portion of a float using Smarty, try this...

{$number|string_format:"%d"}

That is like PHP's printf().
