I should be able to do this, but lack of sleep is taking its toll

I have a field on a grid view that i ONLY want to show if someone is looking at grid with a filter_published = 2 (ie looking at archived records)

I though the filters were passed silently through POST but I suspect i need to use a STATE call

So in essence (making this stuff up) something like
<?php if(getState::(filter.published) == 2) { ?>
<td>STUFF YOU CAN SEE IF ARCHIVED</td>
<?php }; ?>

In a grid view you can do:
<?php if ($this->state->get('filter.published',0) == 2 ) : ?>
<td>STUFF YOU CAN SEE IF ARCHIVED</td>
<?php }; ?>

I have used it (also for hiding/showing columns)

$model->getState('filter.xxxx')

EDIT : Better to use $model, because you can have various models instanced.
Instead, $this->state is only based on the page default model. (works also)

Good addition, I was assuming the page default model was needed :)

Also $this->state works only in the view, instead the $model is cross application.
Always be careful with states that you are under the same context.

The states vars are a 2 dimentional matrix :
Unlimited states vars X unlimited contexts

  I still don't believe he can really be human to do all this ! From all of the forums that I've ever participated in this is certainly the one that most encapsulates the feeling of being truly open source where everyone's opinions and contributions can and will shape the development of the service! It's truly awesome! Hope you enjoy cooking and look forward to reading and contributing to any of the editorial work that you proposed too!! Thanks
