Adding code to first item in a list

Ahhhh OK but the CSS does not seem to recognize a ' instead of a "

<?php if ($key == 0) { echo "class='current'"; } ?>>

Since your using echo " .... The CSS is looking for "current"

What do you think ? ....

The lower right side you will see an expanded accordion set of services. That is the problem spot.

Hi Michael,

You've got a bit of jQuery doing the nice accordion effect, and the class will be read happily (it's not a matter of single or double quotes), the issue is that the accordion effect is not being run after the page has finished loading.

I'm not sure which accordion function you're using, but you need to make sure it runs at $(document).ready(function ($) { ... } and not beforehand. This will force the function to wait until the rest of the page is drawn before performing any neat jQuery tricks on it.

Let me know if this helps,

Tom

OK great,
That was the ticket there although what I was overlooking also was the style of "display block" just after that was another element that needed to go away if it was not the first item in the list. There was no need to change the jQuery in this case.

So actually I was able to fix that with the same solution...
<?php if ($key == 0) { echo "style='display:block'"; } ?>

Now I would like to know how to express the key number elsewhere.

<?php foreach ($home_pageRecord['slideshow_uploads'] as $upload): ?>
<?php if ($upload['hasThumbnail']): ?>
<a href="#wows0" title="<?php echo $upload['info1'] ?>"><img src="<?php echo $upload['thumbUrlPath'] ?>" width="<?php echo $upload['thumbWidth'] ?>" height="<?php echo $upload['thumbHeight'] ?> alt="<?php echo $upload['info1'] ?>"/>1</a>
<?php endif ?>
<?php endforeach ?>

Here I need to use the key number to change for each one on the list. #wows0 #wows1 #wows2 etc etc ....
This works well since they are already set up that same way.
So how does that look?
My guess was :<?php echo $record['$key'];?> ... wrong :P

Thanks

Michael

Hi Michael,

To assign the index of an array to a variable when using foreach, all you have to do is declare it using the format 'index'=>'value', for example:
foreach ($array as $key=>$value) {
echo $key." is the key!<br>";
echo $value." is the value!<br><br>";
}
So in your second loop, that would be:
<?php foreach ($home_pageRecord['slideshow_uploads'] as $key=>$upload): ?>
<?php if ($upload['hasThumbnail']): ?>
<a href="#wows<?php echo $key; ?>" title="<?php echo $upload['info1'] ?>"><img src="<?php echo $upload['thumbUrlPath'] ?>" width="<?php echo $upload['thumbWidth'] ?>" height="<?php echo $upload['thumbHeight'] ?> alt="<?php echo $upload['info1'] ?>"/>1</a>
<?php endif ?>
<?php endforeach ?>

Let me know if this helps,
