Building a repeat region with styles

Hi,

I was tiring to basically add a repeat region with style that i have in my css.

So for and example i have a page that's called calender.

What i would like to do is that every time i post a new event i would like if it could pull all the info from the database and recreate that box with however many postings i have in the Data Base.


So it would be like below.


(Event 1) (Event 2) (Event 3)

(Event 4) (Event 5) (Event 6)

and so on....

I hope this makes sense and thanks for your time in helping me out.

So you want a repeat region that creates columns and rows?

use the Data Assist Repeating table for this. see the "Using Repeating Tables in Data Bridge" tutorial on the Data Bridge support page:
data-bridge/

Basically but not in a table. Is there a way to do this only using divs? if not please explain the tables version if possible.

Thanks for the quick reply!

you could do this with Divs and spans. add the repeat region around the span tag:

example:

<div style="width:600px; overflow:hidden;">

<?php do { ?>

<span style="float:left;width:200px;"><?php echo $_rowRecordsetName['columnName']</span>

<?php } while ($row_recordsetName = mysql_fetch_assoc($recordsetName)); ?>

</div>

Hey Jason,

I'm getting a syntax code error when i add that line of code.

And just in case i did change the $row_recordset name and all the default text you've added with my information

Thanks!


Oh yeah and it just doesn't display anything the page goes white.

this is an example, and not complete code.


add the div and span to your page:
<div style="width:600px; overflow:hidden;">
<span style="float:left;width:200px;">recordset binding here</span>
</div>



Where it says "recordset binding here" replace that with the bindings from the bindings panel to show the recordset information, select the span tag, and add the repeat region.

I still cant get it to work .

This is the code i have it still only displays the first entry.

Sorry for coping and pasting but its just so you have a better look at my code.



<?php do { ?>

<div id="calender_event" onclick="location.href='plugins/event_page.html';" style="cursor:pointer;">

<div id="calenderday"><a style="color:#c8dd5d; text-decoration:none;" href="#"><?php echo WA_getCMSContent($database_PowerCMSConnection, $PowerCMSConnection, 'events', 'Day'); ?></a></div>

<div id="calendereventday"><?php echo WA_getCMSContent($database_PowerCMSConnection, $PowerCMSConnection, 'events', 'Month and date'); ?></div>

<div id="calenderevent_discription"><?php echo WA_getCMSContent($database_PowerCMSConnection, $PowerCMSConnection, 'events', 'Small Discription'); ?></div>

</div>

<?php } while ($row_PowerCMSConnection = mysql_fetch_assoc($PowerCMSConnection)); ?>

how is the PowerCMSConnection recordset configured?

It sounds like the recordset is the problem.

Ok sorry about the confusion I've been working on this..

I got it to repeat the region so That's awesome!

Thanks so much for that but it seems like i have another issue.

I can Now pull the info through but not all of the database info is showing that i want to display. The div that reads "calenderevent_discription" is able to bring the database info to display But it is not displaying the top 2.

I've tried the same line of code that "calenderevent_discription" is using in the other divs and it pulls fine I then replace the tables name from the code that is from the database and it wont function even using the same code but different table.

Here is my Code again..

Thanks!


<?php do { ?>
<div id="calender_event" onclick="location.href='plugins/event_page.html';" style="cursor:pointer;">

<div id="calenderday"><a style="color:#c8dd5d; text-decoration:none;" href="#"><?php
include('/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/sitename/WA_CMS/addtosite.php');
echo WA_getCMSContent($database_PowerCMSConnection, $PowerCMSConnection, 'events','Day', false, $row_Recordset1['ContentPageSetOrder']);?></a></div>

<div id="calendereventday"><?php
include('/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/sitename/WA_CMS/addtosite.php');
echo WA_getCMSContent($database_PowerCMSConnection, $PowerCMSConnection, 'events','Month and date', false, $row_Recordset1['ContentPageSetOrder']);?>
</div>

<div id="calenderevent_discription"><?php
include('/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/sitename/WA_CMS/addtosite.php');
echo WA_getCMSContent($database_PowerCMSConnection, $PowerCMSConnection, 'events','Event Title', false, $row_Recordset1['ContentPageSetOrder']);?>
</div>

</div>
<?php } while ($row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1)); ?>

Good Morning Jason,

Any word of this issue?
