Hey, anyone know if i can avoid looking up in the database when i need the area name.

 

i know that i can the area id by

 

PageView.Area.ID

 

but that would mean that  id'd have to look up the id in the dba and get the name out.

You can say PageView.Area.Value("areaname") - You can access these information:
 

By the way:

You can do something similar with PageView.Page and Pageview.Stylesheet.

You can see the possibilities (Key/Value/Type) by writing out:

Pageview.OutputPages()

Another way to access these values is via the properties of the Dynamicweb.Core.Area object, example:

Dynamicweb.Core.Area area = new Dynamicweb.Core.Area(PageView.AreaID);

Debug.WriteLine("Area ID =" + area.ID);

Debug.WriteLine("Area Name = " + area.Name);

True - but that would result in a DB call that is not needed...
