Can anyone tell me why this works;
<div id="showcase" class="showcase">
<?php foreach ($home_pageRecord['slides'] as $upload): ?>
<div>
<img src="<?php echo $upload['urlPath'] ?>" width="960" height="400"/>
<div class="showcase-caption">
<?php echo $upload['info1'] ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php endforeach ?>
</div>

yet this stops the page loading?
<div id="showcase" class="showcase">
<?php foreach ($home_pageRecord['slides'] as $upload): ?>
<div>
<img src="<?php echo $upload['urlPath'] ?>" width="960" height="400"/>
<?php if ($upload['info1']): ?>
<div class="showcase-caption">
<?php echo $upload['info1'] ?>
</div>
<? endif ?>
</div>
<?php endforeach ?>
</div>

I'm trying to only show the captions div if a caption (info1) has been entered...
Cheers,

Hi Tim,

I don't see any obvious problem with the code. Does the page page seems to stop when it reaches an upload that has a caption, or one that hasn't? Does this code actually produce an error? Sometimes, errors don't display on the screen and you need to view the page source to see them.

If you could attach a copy of your .php file and send a link to a page where this is not working, we can take a closer look at this. If you don't want to post a link in the forum, you can email it directly to support@interactivetools.com

Hope this helps

Hi Tim,

That's a strange one. There are no syntax errors. My best guess is that something happens with your script when the showcase-caption div is missing. You can test this theory by removing the caption code all together and see if you get the same problem.

You could try replacing it with this:

<div class="showcase-caption">
<?php if ($upload['info1']): ?>
<?php echo $upload['info1'] ?>
<? endif ?>
</div>

But this would actually be the same was your original code.

Hope this helps.

Hi Jason.

Have a look at the attached... they are straight out of the generator - test 3 doesn't work, which is the one with the if statements.

strange!

you are missing a "php" in this line of code...

<? endif ?>

not sure if that would prevent it from working or not.

Sometimes I think I should pack my bags... this is one of those instance.

Thanks! Everything working fine...
