multi select display / checkboxes

Hi rez,

I think something like this should work:

<ul>
<?php foreach ($clientRecord['services:labels'] as $label): ?>
  <li><?php echo $label; ?></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

Let me know if that does the trick or if you have any other questions.

Thanks!

Oh. I used categories and the snippets i have from a long time ago are more complicated. Just getting back into CMSB again. 

So all my pages with categories were lists like:

'where' => "category LIKE '%\t{$selectedCategory['num']}\t%'",

That type of thing, looping out results, and some array tricks I have saved has always given me pretty much everything I needed for things like a restaurant menu. I may make some new posts of code I have been using and you cant tell me if it's still efficient or anything has changed? 

Continuing what you showed me here,  without categories, it's odd that when I search <?php echo $label; ?>, there are no results to see what others are doing. What if I changed my list code to show the whole client table on one page and each showed their services? Is that getting into multiple arrays? Once I see it, I can usually adjust for what I need. 

Client 1

Service 1

Service 2

Client 2 

Service 1

Service 2

Service 3 

This seems to work and it's simple. I found this "continue" line of code here and threw the "true" in there since it's a text box. ? Is this efficient / recommended? Output looks right to me.

  // load record from 'client'
  list($clientRecords, $clientMetaData) = getRecords(array(
    'tableName'   => 'client',
    'loadUploads' => true,
    'allowSearch' => false,
  ));

  // load records from 'services'
  list($servicesRecords, $servicesMetaData) = getRecords(array(
    'tableName'   => 'services',
    'loadUploads' => true,
    'allowSearch' => false,
  ));


						<?php foreach ($clientRecords as $record): //for every client ?> 
							<h5><?php echo htmlencode($record['title']) // show their title?></h5>
								<ul>
									<?php foreach ($record['services:labels'] as $label): // and loop through assigned service names?>
										<?php if ($record['services:values'] != true) { continue; } // skip services that aren't selected ?>
  										<li><?php echo $label; // show name of service not skipped?></li>
									<?php endforeach; ?>
								</ul>
						<?php endforeach; ?>

Hi Rez,

That looks pretty good!

I think you can remove the line with the "continue" however, since $record['services:labels'] should already only contain services selected by that client record. So, you can try removing that line to see if you still get the same result. 

Cheers,

*facepalm*. I understand. Yes, that works well. Actually, this all means I don't even need the services list at the top. Thanks.
