2000-08-25 Thread Mr G Lewis

I take it back:

http://#CGI.SERVER_NAME##CGI.PATH_INFO##CGI.SCRIPT_NA
ME#?#CGI.QUERY_STRING#

does work perfectly

RE: How do I get my Current URL

2000-08-25 Thread Mr G Lewis

Hmm.  Only partly works for me.  Only the the 
#CGI.SERVER_NAME# part returns anything

Same problem with #CGI.SCRIPT_NAME# amd 
#CGI.QUERY_STRING# suggested by somebody else

RE: Checkboxes....

2000-08-25 Thread Mr G Lewis

Nick,
Many many thanks for digging out the thread messages and 
sending them to me.  You are right this is the same question.  I 
don't entirely understand the answer though:




 
 



I would have a loop within the cfform as I guess is implied above
How do the values of the selected checkboxes get added to the list 
before the submit button is pressed and how is that list passed to 
the next template - as an  ?

or are we ignoring the normal checkbox FORM values and using the 
list instead?

RE: Checkboxes....

2000-08-25 Thread Mr G Lewis

Nick,

> Yesterday in fact :-)
> The thread is called "picking up form variables on the action page??"

Thing is I only rejoined the list today.  I can see one tail end of that 
thread but it is only talking about checking the existance of FORM 
varaiables.  Perhaps the start oif the thread refered to my question 
but I cannot access those messages (they do not seem to be in the 
archives yet) 

My question is to do with passing checkbox FORM variables whose 
names are dynamically generated in the form.

I can't send them as as an array (I guess a form variable cannot be 
an array ... I experimented and it didn't work) without resorting to 
WDDX or somesuch so I am sending them as

Item_1Item_n

My problem is is looping through those in the next template and 
inserting their values into the database.

I am trying to write the ones that get passed to an array and then 
looping through that to do the inserts but it is clunky and anyway 
doesn't work at the moment.

Graham

Checkboxes....

2000-08-25 Thread Mr G Lewis

Hello,
 This has almost certainly been asked before... so here we go
again:

I have a form that displays a set of items each with its own 
checkbox.  The number of choices will vary from day to day. The 
user selects any number of the items displayed and these choices 
are to be entered into a database.

The items come from the database so result from a query e.g.


SELECT Item_Name, Item_ID
FROM Items
WHERE Active=1 
 

then I do something like this to create a set of checkboxes - I don't 
know
how many checkboxes there are so I have to create the names 
dynamically:






 
#Item_Name#
 





so the next template receives a set of FORM.Choice_1, 
FORM.Choice_2 and so on which contain the Item_ID values that I 
need to insert into the database.

This where I am stumped - how do I step through those vales in 
order to insert them? OR perhaps there is a BETTER WAY.

I guess I can't do this:



INSERT INTO Choices(Items)
Values('Choice_#Count#')



I could write the Choice_N values to an array Choices[N] then loop over 
that but there must be a better way

Graham
