Assoziative Array in template

Hi, so i have an array which looks like that:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [goods] => Array
                (
                    [0] => Array
                        (
                            [Food_ID] => 4
                            [Titel_DE] => Rotweinbirne mit hausgemachtem Rotweineis
                            [Titel_EN] =>
                            [Titel_IT] => Poire au vin rouge glace vin rouge fait maison
                            [Describtion_DE] =>
                            [Describtion_EN] =>
                            [Describtion_IT] =>
                            [PriceMain] => 25
                            [PriceSec] => 0
                            [PriceMainDesc] =>
                            [PriceSecDesc] =>
                        )

                )

            [catDetails] => Array
                (
                    [Categorie_ID] => 19
                    [Titel_DE] => eee
                    [Titel_EN] =>
                    [Titel_IT] =>
                    [Describtion_DE] =>
                    [Describtion_EN] =>
                    [Describtion_IT] =>
                )

        )

)
can i somehow access the entries of the array in the tempalte with theire indexes? like
[a;block=begin]
[a.goods.0.Titel_DE]
[a;block=end]

?

that would be nice.

Hi,

Yes, your snippet seems correct.
Doesn't it work?

No, it didnt. But i will try it again and post all my code.

so, it worked. Thanks :)

So 1 question: if i have a loop like this

[c.goods;block=begin]
[c.goods.0.Titel_DE]
[c.goods;block=end]

is it correct to ent the block with c.goods, or could i just use c? it works liek that. also, i want to autocount the 0. i thougth i can do that with the $ symbol, but then i get the warning: in field [c.goods.$.Titel_DE...]: item '$' is not an existing key in the array.

Thanks

> is it correct to ent the block with c.goods, or could i just use c?

If you use block=begin/block=end, the correct syntax is with the name of the block alone. This is because such fields are markers for the block bounds.
If you use block=tag, then you can either add a sub-name of not. With a sub-name they have the double function: define block bounds, plus display a field's value. Without a sub-name, they are only used to define the block bounds.

> i thougth i can do that with the $ symbol

Yes but is it relative to the current record only, not the number of items in a sub-array. The correct syntax is: [c.$].

i got a array like:

i got a numeric array, each entry got an array with 2 associative entries ( goods, detail) and goods also got an numeric array. so i want of every array the goods part to loop.


my array looks like: http://pastebin.com/5M0aeTXR

i want to loop over the first level, so through each categorie. then i just need the goods part.

what do you mean with, it is relative to the current record only? why should he care if it is a sub array or not? he doesnt like now it. I pass an array, if that array is now the 3rd or 1th level shouldnt matter. i just wanted to use the $ on the last numeric level.

[c;block=begin;sub1]
[c_sub1;block=begin; when [c_sub1.$] == goods]
[c_sub1.0.Titel_DE]
[c_sub1;block=end]
[c;block=end]

thas what i got now. so $ represents the key, in this case it c_sub1.$ would be goods or catDetails. so it does the block just if it is goods. thats very nice!

now, i want to loop througth the goods array. it is a numeric array. i tried:

doing a sub2, didnt work. and yo'veu never done it right? can i somehow begin a new loop and like pass the cat_sub1.$? like:

[c;block=begin;sub1]
[c_sub1;block=begin; when [c_sub1.$] == goods]
[c_sub1.$;block=begin]
[Titel_DE]
[c_sub1.$;block=end]
[c_sub1;block=end]
[c;block=end]

that doesnt work either, it outputs me

goods
[title_de]
goods

etc.

hmm, i somehow need to loop the goods array. or i need something like i++; so the first loop it is 0 then say add one for each loop. but i didnt find anything in the manual.

if i could make a coutner into my loop, everything would be perfect. ^^

Hi Xotix,

I think, here is what you need for the result you're expecting:
I've tested it with the array you've given, and it works.

> what do you mean with, it is relative to the current record only?

$ and # are TBS virtual columns that represents respectively the key and the row number of the current record merged by TBS. Thus, those virtual columns do not exist under sub-values, even if the sub-value is an array.
[myblock.$] is ok, but [myblock.column.$] cannot work.

Oh yeah, thanks a lot! thats perfect. :) Thanks and have a nice day.
