Hi there,







I was wondering what kind of options we have within loops, for example; add extra tags after 3 iterations and so forth.

Hi

You have no options regarding adding tags.

Loops is just a way of cutting down the amount of templates.

// Dammark

When coding with templates in custom modules you can add tags - and also only let them show when you are in 3rd iteration:

Dim tmpl As New Templatev2.Template("DwCustomModule/" & prop.Value("template"))

tmpl.SetTag("PageID", pv.ID)

Dim sql As String = String.Empty

sql = "SELECT * FROM [Module] WHERE [ModuleAccess] = " & Database.SqlBool(True)

Dim i As Integer = 1

Using dr As IDataReader = Database.getDataReader(sql, "Dynamic.mdb")

Do While dr.Read

Dim myLoop As Templatev2.Template = tmpl.GetLoop("Modules")

'myLoop.SetTag("SystemName", dr.Item("ModuleSystemName").ToString)

'myLoop.SetTag("ModuleName", dr.Item("ModuleName").ToString)

myLoop.SetTags(dr)

If i > 3 Then

myLoop.SetTag("MoreThan3", i)

End If

myLoop.CommitLoop()

i += 1

Loop

End Using

tmpl.SetTag("SomeTag", "Some value")

'tmpl.GenerateTemplate(True)

Return tmpl.Output

Hi,

I have a wild idea, though may not be very reliable/applicable. What if you use a javascript variable that will be incremented each time the loop runs, and every 3 or 4 incrementions, outputs something?

I understand this may require a lot of processing on the client side, but could work as a solution to someone, don't you think?
