Thank you received: 53

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 }; ?>

Instead, $this->state is only based on the page default model. (works also) Coding is now a piece of cake The following user(s) said Thank You: organicwebs

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 Coding is now a piece of cake

This is what you call a component builder. I was able to master using this in a very short time and the resulting component works like a charm. Not just a basic component builder but a fully working component builder with forms fields tables all ready to go. You can make the list and item views to display in the front and back end. Also there is a great forum just starting to evolve and I'm sure this will grow very rapidly when you all realise how good this tool is.
