Yvan Cottyn	Thursday 18 September 2003 5:57:18 am Hi all, I'm trying to get the content class ID from stuff i fetched in a template. I can find similar php code but not a template example/docs. Here is what i'm trying to do: {section name=Thing loop=$stuff_i_fetched} {switch match=$Thing:item.???????????} {case match=x} Thing is of contentclass with ID x so we do this .... {/case} {case} else we do the default {/case} {/switch} {/section} Anyone can replace the question marks with what i am looking for? TIA vanne
Alex Jones	Thursday 18 September 2003 6:59:45 am Have you tried looking at the attribute list for $Thing to see where it lists the class? Place {$Thing\|attribute(show)} or {$Thing:item\|attribute(show)} in your code to see all of the attributes assigned to the item. One of the attributes should be the class and its corresponding label. Alex Alex [ bald_technologist on the IRC channel (irc.freenode.net): #eZpublish ] <i>When in doubt, clear the cache.</i>
