Serial blocks with blocks inside?
Hi gang,
I'm trying to produce a calendar using TBS. I've managed to output the entire calendar but I want to show 4 months per row in a table, like
Jan Feb Mar Apr
May Jun Jul Aug
Sep Oct Nov Dec
So it seems to me this should be doable with the serial paramater but I can't get it to work. I thought perhaps something like this:
<!-- begin calendar display -->
<table align='center' style='width: auto' border=10>
<tr valign='top'>
<td>[onload_cals;block=tr;serial][onload;file=tpl/cal_month.tpl;block=td]</td>
<td>[onload_cals_2;file=tpl/cal_month.tpl;block=td]</td>
<td>[onload_cals_3;file=tpl/cal_month.tpl;block=td]</td>
<td>[onload_cals_4;file=tpl/cal_month.tpl;block=td]</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- end calendar display -->
But nothing displays.
In the cal_month.tpl I have another block (which I'm Merging from PHP) and a serial block inside that. I can post the code if it would help.
Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

Re: Serial blocks with blocks inside?
Hi Ciarán,
Parameter "serial" doesn't work with automatic [onload] and [onshow] blocks because they are not merged with data. Such block shoud have a parameter "when" or "default".
Something like this could help:
HTML:
<table align='center' style='width: auto' border=10>
<tr valign='top'> [month;block=tr;serial]
<td>
[month_[col.val;block=td].name;block=td]
[onload;file=tpl/cal_month.tpl]
</td>
</tr>
</table>
|
PHP:
$TBS->MergeBlock('col','num',4);
$TBS->MergeBlock('month','num',12);

Re: Serial blocks with blocks inside?
Ah, nice thinking.
I had to change my template a bit since the file I included had a block in it, so I had to change that block's name to month_[col.val] everywhere, and then Merge the month block with my array instead.
Works great now though, thanks a lot.
