Re: Outputting all content from CFSWITCH

So basically, you're saying that I'd set up a CFSCRIPT like this at the top of my doc with the CFSWITCH, add each case to that CFSCRIPT, then output the "single" CFCASE of "all"?

I don't necessarily mind CFLOOPs... how would that work?

Actually I just had a mind glitch, the switch can only receive one value but
the cases can bind to multiple values. So, you would need to do something
like this:

<cfscript>
switch(variable)
{
        case "value1": case "all":
                //display something
                if(variable != "all")
                        break;

        case "value2": case "all":
                //display something else
                if(variable != "all")
                        break;
        
        default:
                //display default display
}
</cfscript>

Well it's not as pretty anymore. But if you really want this functionality
built into the switch and want to avoid loops, then this is probably the
best way to go.

I'm not very good with CFSCRIPT - would you mind providing an example? Thanks so much!

A break command is built into the CFCASE tag, so even if you passed in a
list of all CASEes it would break after the first match. However, if you


use


CFSCRIPT and build your switch there, you have to explicitly state your
break commands after every case. So the list would work.

So convert the page to CFSCRIPT.

I have a help file that is broken out into separate CFCASE statements. (On each page of the admin, the appropriate CFCASE is read in to display the contextual correct help content).

I'd like to be able to output all help on one page ... how can I output every CFCASE statement on one page without having to manually code each separate CFCASE output?

Thanks!
Jake
