form displayed twice on page (and shouldn't be)

agovella · 2013-09-01 20:26:37

Hey guys,

A form is appearing on the page twice. (Tag trace pasted at bottom of this post.)

I have this page which is an article list:

http://thinkingandmaking.com/test/

If you scroll up and down, you’ll notice the form that outputs the page appears twice.

The page includes a different form based on whether or not it’s an article or a list:

<txp:if_individual_article>
    <txp:article form="ux-lab-article" />
</txp:if_individual_article>

<txp:if_article_list>
    <txp:article form="ux-lab-article-list" />
</txp:if_article_list>

In the form, ux-lab-article-list, I have removed all Textpattern tags. It’s only static HTML.

Oddly, the article page displays just fine:

http://thinkingandmaking.com/test/132/test-article

It looks normal that since you have 2 articles (137 and 132), the form is output twice?

~~So, how do I display an entirely different page for the list than I do for the article?~~

I changed it form an article tag to output form and it looks like it is only including the form once now. I’ll put all the textpattern tags back in and see if it’s sorted.

Add some textpattern tags to your form ux-lab-article-list, and move the static html out of it. The form could be something like this:

<h2><txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink></h2>
<txp:excerpt />

And on the page it would be:

<txp:if_article_list>
    <txp:article form="ux-lab-article-list" />
    // here your html
</txp:if_article_list>

Changing the form is a possible approach, just remember that every article will call this form, even if it does not contain txp tags. If you just want a static content, this will do:

<txp:if_article_list>
    static content, but what's the point?
</txp:if_article_list>

A form that is called by an article or article_custom tag, is repeated for every article, a form called by output_form only once.

Edit: Oleg was faster :)
