Tagging

Hi Mickey,

To set this up, you'll want to create a textfield for the tags to be entered into - I called mine "Tags". You may also want to specify some instructions for this field that each tag should be separated by a comma.

Now create a normal detail viewer page, or open up your existing one. The only thing we're going to do here is add this code in:

<?php $tagList = split(',', $record['tags']); ?>
<?php foreach ($tagList as $tagLink): ?>
<a href="/path/to/your/listViewer.php?tags_keyword=<?php echo urlencode(trim($tagLink)); ?>"><?php echo $tagLink ?></a>
<?php endforeach ?>

That code will split up your tags each time it encounters a comma, and will also remove any spaces entered before or after the comma, if present. It will also URL encode the text should some weird characters make it in there. Finally it will generate a search link for each one of the entered tags.

The only thing you'll need to change in that code is this chunk of text:

/path/to/your/listViewer.php

This should point to the list viewer page for this section. If you'd like to limit the results to ten on this page, just enter "10" into the 'limit' option at the start of your list viewer page:

'limit' => '10',

That should be it! Let me know how this works out for you. [:)]
