Then weird again. It should only generate a list of attributes from adi_gps variables. What if you delete the linebreaks:

<txp:etc_query globals="variable" data="{?Color,Model,Price}">
  <txp:article_custom {$?({?Model}|Model='<txp:variable name="Model" />'|)} {$?({?Color}|Color='<txp:variable name="Color" />'|)} {$?({?Price}|Price='<txp:variable name="Price" />'|)}
  />
<txp:else />
  <txp:article />
</txp:etc_query>

etc.

Here is what I have determined, it is based on the first item in this list: data={?Color,Model,Price} The first variable allows the other two to work — but that is it — I can swap around the order and the functionality still works, but only if you use the first variable. (ie change Model to Color and you will then be forced to select Model to make the other two function.

Ah yes, I see, that’s because adi_gps assigns it an empty value. Try to replace it with data=”{?Color}{?Model}{?Price}”

You are welcome, but it’s midnight in Paris, I’m falling offline :)

Hi, with txp 4.5 beta I am getting an error message now with the code used here (Actually my code is a bit different but the essentials are the same.)

Tag error:  <txp:etc_query data='<txp:variable name="imgnav" />'   query="a[@data-id='{?pic}']"> ->  Warning: DOMDocument::saveHTML() expects exactly 0 parameters, 1 given while parsing form “None” on page “pic”

Error both on v.0.9 and 0.98

Hi Peter, are you sure to have the minimal required php version (5.3.8 – 5.3.10)?

zero · 2012-08-02 08:21:11

I have 5.3.5 on my local host. MAMP version.

etc · 2012-08-02 08:27:39

I have no MAMP to test at hand, sorry. You need at least 5.3.8 (5.3.10 on WAMP), is it possible to upgrade? etc_query uses very little of txp functions, it works on 4.5 for me.

I’m confused re MAMP/WAMP versions. I thought that 5.3.5 came after 5.3.10 and that 5.3.10 came before not after 5.3.8 (because I thought 10 = 1 in these versions).

Anyway, I upgraded MAMP, now using PHP 5.4.4, and etc.query works fine and my problem is solved :-) Thanks!

Version 0.98: respects php scripting settings and user levels. Enhanced range generation.

Thanks again for your help. I am hoping you can assist one more time. The above works great, but now I am looking to include not only drop down selections, but also a multi select option for the end user. I use glz_custom_fields for the back end.

With drop downs, the url returns this: .../search?Color=Blue&Model=Honda&Price=25000

When I add a multi select field called “Features”, I get the following url: .../search?Color=Blue&Model=Honda&Price=25000&Features=XMRadio&Features=Moon+Roof

For the multi select, I am using this in the search form:

dropdowns ... drop downs ... drop downs ...

<INPUT NAME="Features" TYPE="CHECKBOX" <txp:if_variable name="Features" value="XMRadio">selected</txp:if_variable>value="XMRadio"> XMRadio<BR>2
<INPUT NAME="Features" TYPE="CHECKBOX" <txp:if_variable name="Features" value="Moon Roof">selected</txp:if_variable>value="Moon Roof">Moon Roof<BR>

The problem is that the the multi select returns nothing if I just select that and nothing else. If I use a drop down in combination with a multi select it also returns nothing. If I just use drop downs without the multi select everything works fine.

I am using the following form for the search results:

<txp:etc_query globals="variable" data="{?Model}{?Color}{?Price}{?Features}?">
  <txp:article_custom
    {$?({?Model}|Model='<txp:variable name="Model" />'|)}
    {$?({?Color}|Color='<txp:variable name="Color" />'|)}
    {$?({?Price}|Price='<txp:variable name="Price" />'|)}
    {$?({?Features}|Features='<txp:variable name="Features" />'|)}
  />
<txp:else />
  <txp:article />
</txp:etc_query>

I tried multiple variations, but it seems to ignore the multi select field.

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks.
