Template Parser Limited? - El Forum - 06-18-2009

I'm trying to run the template parser through a multidimensional array.... 3 dimensional to be exact. and it doesn't seem to like either the array setup or the parser is incapable of handling such operation.
ex: with 2 dimensional...
Code:
$query = $this->db->query("SELECT * FROM blog");
$this->load->library('parser');
$data = array(
'blog_title' => 'My Blog Title',
'blog_heading' => 'My Blog Heading',
'blog_entries' => $query->result_array()
);
$this->parser->parse('blog_template', $data);I need a three dimensional
Code:
$query = $this->db->query("SELECT * FROM blog");
$this->load->library('parser');
$dataset = array(
'category1' => $query1->result_array(),
'category2' => $query2->result_array(),
'category3' => $query3->result_array()
);
$data = array(
'blog_title' => 'My Blog Title',
'blog_heading' => 'My Blog Heading',
'blog_entries' => $dataset,
);
$this->parser->parse('blog_template', $data);If anyone has more information about the template parser I would appreciate it!

Is there any reason you can't just use a foreach loop for now?

No, I can definitely hard code it... would just like to have the separation between the code and template of the page....

I know where you're coming from. I needed to take a break from what I was doing, so here's what I came up with.
./system/application/controllers/mdarray_parse_demo.php
Code:
<?php
class Mdarray_parse_demo extends Controller
{
function Mdarray_parse_demo()
{
parent::Controller();
$this->load->library('parser');
}
function index()
{
$data['categories'] = $this->get_data();
$this->parser->parse('mdarray_parse_demo', $data);
}
function get_data()
{
return array
(
array
(
'title' => 'Category 1',
'products' => array
(
array
(
'prod_title' => 'Hammer',
'prod_description' => 'For hitting stuff',
'sub_products' => array
(
array
(
'sp_title' => 'Glass Nails',
),
array(
'sp_title' => 'Rubber Nails',
)
),
),
array
(
'prod_title' => 'Wheel Chair',
'prod_description' => 'It\'s a chair with wheels...',
'sub_products' => array
(
array
(
'sp_title' => 'Pedals',
),
array(
'sp_title' => 'Nitrous Oxide',
)
),
),
),
),
array
(
'title' => 'Category 2',
'products' => array
(
array
(
'prod_title' => 'Spade',
'prod_description' => 'For burying people',
'sub_products' => array
(
array
(
'sp_title' => 'Chloroform',
),
array(
'sp_title' => 'Meat Clever',
)
),
),
array
(
'prod_title' => 'Rocket Launcher',
'prod_description' => 'For those times when you just need to de-stress',
'sub_products' => array
(
array
(
'sp_title' => 'Bill Gates',
),
array(
'sp_title' => 'Amy Winehouse',
)
),
),
),
),
);
}
}./system/application/views/mdarray_parse_demo.php
Code:

</html>Please see attached image for the result. I think the key is to ensure that none of the sub arrays have a key matching any of the keys in the parent arrays (hope that makes sense).

Ok... I'll be looking over your code and trying to figure out how the parser is going through that compared to what I have and why its not going through it... The difference that I am working with is that I am pulling a result_array from a mysql query.... not having a static array???
Erm... I'll look through it and post my results! I appreciate you taking your time to do that for me!

There is a massive issue with key names I spotted while working on my HelpfulParser. If anything has the same key name as an item higher up in the view data array, it will simply be ignored.

At least that confirms I'm not crazy. Thanks.
