Xenon,

Thank you! IMHO, this should be added as a hack or "how to" as this is quite a handy bit of coding.

One question:
How would I go about adding a second set of prepopulated text (for a different [additional] array of forum ids)?

Xenon · #17 08-28-2004, 03:28 PM

you can cascade the iif's so something like:

Code:

 construct_edit_toolbar(iif($newpost['message'] == '', iif($foruminfo['forumid'] == 1,'Your predefinied text for forum 1 here', iif($foruminfo['forumid'] == 2,'Your predefinied text for forum 2 here', iif($newpost['message'])), 0, $foruminfo['forumid'], $foruminfo['allowsmilies']);

..

Just tried it with this code:

PHP Code:


			
  construct_edit_toolbar(iif($newpost['message'] == '', iif($foruminfo['forumid'] == 61,

You lack a lot of closing )

I suggest that you start with only 1 iif, test it.

Then keep adding them and testing until you got them all.

thanks for the reply, I added 5 closing ) before didn't work...had to be 6 closing )...the page now at least loads, but now I got this error:

Warning: Missing argument 2 for iif() in /includes/functions.php on line 326

Marco van Herwaarden · #22 01-20-2005, 09:12 PM

Well like i said, build the line by adding the iif's one by one. Sorry to tired now to go analyze your line.

I tried it with one, and it gave that error as well...I'll just try some more

Marco van Herwaarden · #24 01-21-2005, 03:28 AM

Post the code you used with only 1 and i will have a look

Have a look at the following code. If you try to indend pieces of code that belong together, things might be easier to follow:

PHP Code:


			
    construct_edit_toolbar(

        iif($newpost['message'] == ''

            , iif($foruminfo['forumid'] == 61

                ,    'New post Message empty, forumid = 61'  

                ,    iif($newpost['message']

                    , 'Something else have happened, this can never be'    

                    , 'There is NO message and forumid is not 61, message is: ' . $newpost['message']

                    )

            )

            , iif($foruminfo['forumid'] == 61

                ,    'New post Message NOT empty, forumid = 61'  

                ,    iif($newpost['message']

                    , 'There is a message and forumid is not 61, message is: ' . $newpost['message'] 

                    , 'Something else have happened, this can never be.....'    

                    )

            )

        )

        , 0, $foruminfo['forumid'], $foruminfo['allowsmilies']);

I added a small test script to play with.

Just edit is until you got it right, then implement it in your real code, using real text.

PS Instead of putting those long multi-line text in you function call and iif statements, i suggest that you assign var's (or better an array) with these texts, and then use those vars in your statement.

This will reduce the size of the source for that statement, making it easier to see where you are going wrong.
