Enhancement Request for WebCatalog-NT
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 1996
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 10088
interpreted = N
texte = It would be nice if you provided a template variable which was the total number of lines in the scrapbook. I know that I can use [lineIndex] to refer to the current line, but there is no way to get the total number of lines. I needed to be able to use JavaScript to calculate a shipping charge and total for an order form. I had no way of knowing how many lines were in the scrapbook. I eventually just created a JavaScript variable and incremented it within each line as it was generated. I will eventually be rewriting this process with Perl, so non-Netscape browsers can get the purchase total. Something analagous to [numFound] or [numReturned], perhaps called [numLines] would make my life easier... Thanks
