modifying repeating fields

[Aaron Graham]

I am having an issue modifying a repeatng field using FX, how would I set up the AddDBParam calls, do I

1.) send 1 AddDBParam with field name and an array

2.) multiple AddDBParam with same field name and a single value for each repition

3.) multiple AddDBParam with field name+[1...n] and a single value for each repition

not sure if this is clear, but hopefully someone knows what I need...

TIA

I figured it out, have to use addparam(fieldName.index, value)

HI,

I am having the same problem. How do you retrieve repeating values from the web page?

I use the following code for 2 repaeting fields (7 repetitions):

<tr>[FMP-Repeating: test1]<td><input type="text" value="[FMP-RepeatingItem]" name="field1"></td>[/FMP-Repeating]</tr>

<tr>[FMP-Repeating: test2]<td><input type="text" value="[FMP-RepeatingItem]" name="field2"></td>[/FMP-Repeating]</tr>

I can see my repeating values on the page and enter data into all the boxes, but how do I retrieve them in php page (I use combined CDML/PHP)?

I tried AddParam('test1.1', 'field1')

AddParam('test1.2', 'field1')

.....

does not work

Please HELP!

Thank you very much!

Here is the deal...

Repeating fields are translated (in so many words) to actuall arrays themselves.

So if you have 1 repeating field with 3 entries, you would get their information by:

$instance['repeatingfield'][0];

$instance['repeatingfield'][1];

$instance['repeatingfield'][2];

and so on...

If you wanted to display a list you would use something like this:

<?php

for ($i=0; $i < count($instance['repeatingfield']) ; $i++){

echo $instance['repeatingfield'][$i];

}

?>

This would return the list of values inside the repeating field.

Hope this helps!!
