I have a question about using variables inside a function. The first part of code is not working. It appears that the variable '$myvalue' is not being served to the function although when I echo the $myvalue it has the right text.
If I however use normal text, it WORKS!
How to do this dynamically so that the varibale CAN be used?
First code is here and is NOT working!
<?php
$myregions = array('delaware','florida','colorado');
foreach ($myregions as $myvalue){
osc_query_item(array('region'=>$myvalue));
if ( osc_has_custom_items() && osc_item_region()==$myvalue) {
bender_draw_item($class);
}
}
?>
Second code is here and IS working!
<?php
osc_query_item(array('region'=>'Delaware'));
if ( osc_has_custom_items() && osc_item_region()=='Delaware') {
bender_draw_item($class);
}
osc_query_item(array('region'=>'Florida'));
if ( osc_has_custom_items() && osc_item_region()=='Florida') {
bender_draw_item($class);
}
osc_query_item(array('region'=>'Colorado'));
if ( osc_has_custom_items() && osc_item_region()=='Colorado') {
bender_draw_item($class);
}
?>
The function is here (I took some of the 'case' out because readability:
function osc_query_item($params = null) {
$mSearch = Search::newInstance();
if($params==null) {
$params = array();
} else if(is_string($params)){
$keyvalue = explode("=", $params);
$params = array($keyvalue[0] => $keyvalue[1]);
}
foreach($params as $key => $value) {
switch($key) {
case 'region':
case 'region_name':
$tmp = explode(",", $value);
foreach($tmp as $t) {
$mSearch->addRegion($t);
}
break;
case 'city':
case 'city_name':
$tmp = explode(",", $value);
foreach($tmp as $t) {
$mSearch->addCity($t);
}
break;
}
}
View::newInstance()->_exportVariableToView("customItems", $mSearch->doSearch());
}
