First of all, echo the output to see if You get, what Tou expect in a debug situation:
if (!empty($where)) {
echo "
�<ul>";
$article = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
} else {
while ($article = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
// humanize data
$article_id = $article['article_id'];
$title = $article['title'];
$content = substr($article['content'], 0 200); // get first 200 chars
// print and see if we get, what we expect
Print "id=$article_id<br>title=$title<br>content=$content<p>";
// now make the real stuff
print "<li><a href='{" . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . "}?a={$article_id}'}&title='{$title}'>{$article['title']}</a><br />\n$content</li>";
}
}
echo " �</ul>";
I�ve put the "&" in front of title since the link otherwise would be <a href="a=1234title=sometext">, which is not what You want I guess.
And I substituted the
$article['content'] = substr($article['content'], 0 200);</li>"; } }
with
$content</li>";
since I believe You want to print the content and not just assign it? Otherwise the <br /> makes no sense :-)
Can anyone help ?
I hop that did the trick for You :-)
It's really sensible and logical what you did. I really appreciate it.
1. $content = substr($article['content'], 0 200); // get first 200 chars is choking, and I've looked in docs and can't understand why. I get
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_LNUMBER in /usr/www/users/domain/dynamic/templates/substr.htm on line 57
2. This correction:
I�ve put the "&" in front of title since the link otherwise would be <a href="a=1234title=sometext">, which is not what You want I guess.
Wow. Actually I wanted it to make <a href='a=1234' title='sometext'> - does this:
print "<li><a href='{" . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . "}?a={$article_id}'}' title='{$title}'>{$article['title']}</a><br />\n$content</li>";
do that? (I ask because I can;t make any of it work?!)
Thanks so much for your help.
