CountChars
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2004
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 59586
interpreted = N
texte = Hi everyone.I have a system that, as the result of some changes and updates, is dealing with two different SKU lengths. One has 7 digits, the other has 10. For the most part it makes no difference. However, there is a feature I need to program that will need to assess the number of digits in the SKU so that those with 7 digits can be handled differently than those with 10.When I use [countchars][sku][/countchars] it only gives me "5" (the number of characters in [sku]). It doesn't actually INTERPRET the [sku] field before counting the characters. And no, using the [interpret] tag didn't help me either. Clearly, I'm missing something ridiculously simple.Anyone know what that might be? I'm using 4.5.1 on OS X.Thanks,-----Patrick Junkroski-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
