Different urls based on file type

Hi Craig,

Here's a recipe from my CMSB Cookbook thecmsbcookbook.com might get you started.

USING IF STATEMENTS TO DEFINE OUTPUT BASED ON A FILE EXTENSION

If you need to publish specific code that’s based on the type of file that you’ve uploaded into an upload field, like a .swf flash file, here’s the trick. Just use:
<?php if ($upload['extension'] == 'swf'): ?>
or for the second through next to last if parameter in the list (the last one gets an <?php else: ?> instead of a <?php elseif...)
<?php elseif ($upload['extension'] == 'swf'): ?>
You can use this for non upload fields as well:
<?php if ($your_fieldRecord['extension'] == 'doc'): ?>
or
<?php elseif ($your_fieldRecord['extension'] == 'doc'): ?>
And , don’t forget that every if statement must be closed with an <?php endif ?>

Hope that helps,

Hi Jerry

it isnt Craig he is away it is Mark.

thanks for that i am not 100% but this what we have working now for all kinds of pdf, word, excel doc types that get opened.

<?php foreach ($downloadRecords as $record): ?>
<?php foreach ($record['upload'] as $index => $upload): ?>
<a href="http://docs.google.com/gview?url=http://www.domain.com<?php echo $upload['urlPath'] ?>&embedded=true" target="_blank">Download <?php echo htmlencode($upload['info1']) ?></a><br/><br/>
<?php endforeach ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
<?php if (!$downloadRecords): ?>
<?php endif ?>

what we need to do is also upload video files that will open in shadowbox using just the rel="shadowbox" in the url but only if it is a video and not anything else.

Hi Mark,

Sorry that it took so long.

Here's the detail page code I'm using with the jwplayer and a multi-record section called articles.

Hope it helps.
