(Long e-mail but simple problem)
I'm having problems pre-checking checkboxes based on a three-table
arrangement. The "Contacts" table holds all the company-specific
info...
Contacts
=========
ContactID
ContactInfo
etc
The "CompanyTypes" table lists all the different services a company can
offer, eg Architect, Consultant, Contractor, etc...
CompanyTypes
============
CompanyTypeID
CompanyType
and the third table, "CompanyActivities" effectively joins the other two
tables together, so that one company can be listed as offering several
different services:
CompanyActivities
===============
ContactID
CompanyTypeID
I need to create an "Edit this company's details" page which lists *all*
the different CompanyTypes (Architect, Consultant, Contactor) as
checkboxes with the correct ones for each company pre-checked.
If you query the CompanyTypes table to get all the different services,
comme ca:
<CFQUERY DATASOURCE="#application.DataSource#" NAME="GetCompanyTypes">
SELECT CompanyTypes.CompanyTypeID,
CompanyTypes.CompanyType
FROM CompanyTypes
</CFQUERY>
and then query the third table to see which services any selected
company offers:
<CFQUERY DATASOURCE="#application.DataSource#"
NAME="GetCompanyActivities">
SELECT CompanyActivities.ContactID,
CompanyActivities.CompanyTypeID
FROM CompanyActivities
WHERE CompanyActivities.ContactID = #URL.ContactID#
</CFQUERY>
how on earth do you output the results? My best attempt so far only
checks one box (the first)...
<CFOUTPUT QUERY="GetCompanyTypes">
<INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="CompanyTypeID" VALUE="#CompanyTypeID#"<CFIF
GetCompanyActivities.CompanyTypeID IS GetCompanyTypes.CompanyTypeID>
CHECKED</CFIF>>
</CFOUTPUT>
because the query on the third table retreives this recordset
CompanyID 1 1 (1 = Architect)
CompanyID 1 2 (2 = Consultant)
CompanyID 1 10 (10 = Project Management)
Thanks if anyone can help on this stumper...
