James Ward	Tuesday 12 February 2008 11:16:42 pm After reading the documentation I created a multiple selection attribute and tried to output the selected values with the following code: {for 0 to $node.object.data_map.topics.content\|count()\|dec as $counter} {$node.object.data_map.topics.class_content.options[$node.object.data_map.topics.value[$counter]].name}, {/for} It does show all the selected values but it also shows "Array" at the end. I'm assuming my counter is going 1 element past the end of the array but I don't understand why. Has anyone else had this problem or see what I'm doing wrong? working at www.wardnet.com blogging at www.jamesward.ca
Felix Laate	Wednesday 13 February 2008 1:23:12 am Hi! You could try to do something like this: {def $max = $node.object.data_map.topics.content\|count()\|dec} Number of elements: {$max} {for 0 to $max as $counter} {$node.object.data_map.topics.class_content.options[$node.object.data_map.topics.value[$counter]].name}, {/for} If it doesn't do the trick, check out the value of {$max}. Is it correct? Felix Publlic Relations Manager Greater Stavanger www.greaterstavanger.com

After reading the documentation I created a multiple selection attribute and tried to output the selected values with the following code:

 {for 0 to $node.object.data_map.topics.content|count()|dec as $counter}
 {$node.object.data_map.topics.class_content.options[$node.object.data_map.topics.value[$counter]].name}, 
 {/for}

It does show all the selected values but it also shows "Array" at the end. I'm assuming my counter is going 1 element past the end of the array but I don't understand why. Has anyone else had this problem or see what I'm doing wrong?

Hi!

You could try to do something like this:

{def $max = $node.object.data_map.topics.content|count()|dec}
Number of elements: {$max}
{for 0 to $max as $counter} {$node.object.data_map.topics.class_content.options[$node.object.data_map.topics.value[$counter]].name}, 
{/for}

If it doesn't do the trick, check out the value of {$max}. Is it correct?
