RE: [WebDNA] Looking for Govinda

It keeps the original formatting.

texte = Thank you very much, Govinda. I am studying this stuff very carefully now, using the resources you've referred. http://www.loripalmquist.blogspot.com/ If you visit this blog, you'll see where I'm going with all this. Lori -----Original Message----- From: Govinda [mailto:govinda.webdnatalk@gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, July 02, 2011 8:50 AM To: talk@webdna.us Subject: Re: [WebDNA] Looking for Govinda Hi Lori I don't know about Brian Burton's tutorials.. but he'll likely see your post and maybe reply after awhile (he is an in-frequent contributor here). You could try searching the archives of this talklist for his last post.. get his email address.. and then ask him directly. (?) Anyway, I meant to reply after your last post: If you are totally familiar with HTML lists.. ..and you notice that the list item in question is just any ole list item.. (...) .. and you still said you did not know what this is for:
  • [plantName]
  • ..then it just means that you did not know what the square bracketed parts are for.. i.e. this: [waterUseClass] and this: [plantName] Well.. the short answer is that those are database (db) field names, and at the time when webdna is parsing the file... those two strings ("[waterUseClass]" and "[plantName]") get replaced with the values of those fields stored in the iterating record of the database that is being searched on. Which database? ... the one referenced in the [search...] context. See, the [search] finds some records.. and the [founditems] context then loops on each of those found records... and as it is looping on each of them, that record's fields' values are available to you! ... by way of simply sticking in the name of the field inside square brackets. If you find great tutorials, then by all means! But if you still want hand holding, then there is nothing shameful about that.. so long as you keep an appreciative tone (even a super terse one).. and guys like me still enjoy helping!.. even really slowly... which I do. So everything is fine whether you find tutorials or not.. My recommendation (short of the tutorial that just happens to perfectly speak to you) is just to focus on the one little thing you are not understanding. Coding is easy if you just keep breaking down problems into smaller and smaller problems. Now, let me ask, do you know what this is for:
  • [plantName]
  • ? If still not.. then I can reply back with something even simpler to break the problem down further.. into even smaller, more digestible parts. -Govinda On 2011-07-01, at 10:13 AM, Lori Palmquist wrote: > Thank you so much for your patience, and the very detailed explanation and > reference links, Govinda.
