Jason Filby	Thursday 04 September 2003 1:01:54 pm Hi, I need to get a fetch going that retrieves all nodes under the current node's grandparent. Written another way I need to get all node's at the level of the node's parent node. I can't seem to get this working - any help is appreciated. Thanks Jason
Paul Forsyth	Thursday 04 September 2003 1:36:42 pm Your current node has a link to its parent. Look at: {$node\|attribute(show)} and you will see the syntax you need. It is something like: {let parent_node = fetch('content','node',hash(node_id,$node.parent_node_id)} With this $parent_node you can some perform a standard fetch on its parent, like this: {let nodes = fetch('content','list',hash(parent_node_id,$parent_node.node_id)} which will grab all the nodes underneath the parent. There may be a direct way to reach the id of the parents parent, look at the results of the attribute(show) call above. I can't experiment at the moment to confirm this. Hope this helps Paul

Your current node has a link to its parent. Look at:

{$node|attribute(show)}

and you will see the syntax you need.

It is something like:

{let parent_node = fetch('content','node',hash(node_id,$node.parent_node_id)}

With this $parent_node you can some perform a standard fetch on its parent, like this:

{let nodes = fetch('content','list',hash(parent_node_id,$parent_node.node_id)}

which will grab all the nodes underneath the parent.

There may be a direct way to reach the id of the parents parent, look at the results of the attribute(show) call above. I can't experiment at the moment to confirm this.
