hi,

i want to achieve a format like this:

Your Order:

Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
--------------------------------------------
Sum

but with this code:

{"Deine Bestellung"|i18n("design/standard/shop")|upcase()}

{section name=ProductItem loop=$order.product_items show=$order.product_items sequence=array(bglight,bgdark)}

{$ProductItem:item.object_name} 

{/section}

...I get

Item 1

Item 2

What are the parsing rules here? Any hints?

Hi,

I'm surprised by the way you are doing templates files.
There's a new template which depreciates the section structure.
More here :

If you want to show what is in an object or an array, use that :

hi, thanx for your reply. normally i don't use sections in new templates. I just modified an existing template.

I just have problems with the new lines. I will try to change the whole thing to a foreach loop.

The problem is that i get either no new line or two new lines using this section loop.

this code gives me no new line:

{section name=ProductItem loop=$order.product_items show=$order.product_items sequence=array(bglight,bgdark)}
{$ProductItem:item.object_name} 
{/section}

this code gives me two new lines:

{section name=ProductItem loop=$order.product_items show=$order.product_items sequence=array(bglight,bgdark)}

{$ProductItem:item.object_name} 
{/section}

...but I just need one new line like:
Item1
Item2

Hi Andreas

There is only one option left :)

{section name=ProductItem loop=$order.product_items show=$order.product_items sequence=array(bglight,bgdark)}
{$ProductItem:item.object_name} 

{/section}

I've had success with this method in the past.

Cheers
Bruce

...hmmm, I think I already tried this version. I will check that again and set the post to SOLVED if it worked.

thanx for your help!
