Hello,

First, I'd like to say that I really like TemplatePower ..

I've been using It for more than 1 year, and I've created more than 7 applications with it ..

I like it because of its simplicity .. however It doesn't support " IF " statment in templates .. but It's ok . . ^_^


SO, Iam kinda expert in dealing with TemplatePower ..

But :
Code:

$rand_last = mysql_query("select ptitle,poid from poems where uid='$randpoet[uid]' order by pdate desc limit 5");
while($rndlast=mysql_fetch_array($rand_last)){
   $tpl->newBlock("LastRand");
   $tpl->assign("RNDST_Title",$rndlast['ptitle']);
   $tpl->assign("RNDST_ID",$rndlast['poid']);


This is a loop to show the latest 5 poems .. It's working so well !

Code:

<!-- START BLOCK : LastRand -->
<a href="?action=show_poem&id={RNDST_ID}" title="{RNDST_Title}">{RNDST_Title}</a><br />
<!-- END BLOCK : LastRand -->


Yes .. It's so ok till now .. the latest 5 appear correctly with everything ..


but after few lines .. I add :
Code:

$GetQQ = mysql_query("select * from voting order by votid desc limit 1");
$GetQ = mysql_fetch_array($GetQQ);

$tpl->assign("Voting_Queston",$GetQ['question']);
$tpl->assign("VotingID",$GetQ['votid']);


and :
Code:

<form method="post" action="?action=voting&id={VotingID}">
{Voting_Queston}


But .. It doesn't appear completely ..Just empty !


SO I tried to play here and there .. and I removed the part of newBlock of the first code .. like :
Code:

$rand_last = mysql_query("select ptitle,poid from poems where uid='$randpoet[uid]' order by pdate desc limit 5");
while($rndlast=mysql_fetch_array($rand_last)){
   // $tpl->newBlock("LastRand");
   $tpl->assign("RNDST_Title",$rndlast['ptitle']);
   $tpl->assign("RNDST_ID",$rndlast['poid']);


and guess what ?
The second code .. the question appeared correctly and 100% !

So, Simply ..

I remove the newBlock from the first code .. the second appears ok ..
I put the second code before the first one .. the question appears ok and the poems not ..

on other words, the first I define, the Only It's showed and the other not !


I don't know really . . have anyone met something like that ?

Is there any way .. to clear the newBlock of values after It's finished or something ?

Thanks,

You assigned a Block, Lastrand. After which you define a couple of vars into that block. Underneath you parse another 2 vars, but those vars are not in that block. But templatepower doesn't know that. So you have to make sure that these vars are not a part of the block, but a part of the ROOT of the template.

So before assigning those vars, you need to tell templatepower to go to the root.

Code:
<?php

$rand_last = mysql_query("select ptitle,poid from poems where uid='$randpoet[uid]' order by pdate desc limit 5");
while($rndlast=mysql_fetch_array($rand_last)){
   $tpl->newBlock("LastRand");
   $tpl->assign("RNDST_Title",$rndlast['ptitle']);
   $tpl->assign("RNDST_ID",$rndlast['poid']);

$tpl->gotoBlock( "_ROOT" );
$GetQQ = mysql_query("select * from voting order by votid desc limit 1");
$GetQ = mysql_fetch_array($GetQQ);

$tpl->assign("Voting_Queston",$GetQ['question']);
$tpl->assign("VotingID",$GetQ['votid']);

?>


See if that works.
Another way of telling TP that the vars need to be parsed in the root is :

Code:
<?php

$rand_last = mysql_query("select ptitle,poid from poems where uid='$randpoet[uid]' order by pdate desc limit 5");
while($rndlast=mysql_fetch_array($rand_last)){
   $tpl->newBlock("LastRand");
   $tpl->assign("RNDST_Title",$rndlast['ptitle']);
   $tpl->assign("RNDST_ID",$rndlast['poid']);

$GetQQ = mysql_query("select * from voting order by votid desc limit 1");
$GetQ = mysql_fetch_array($GetQQ);

$tpl->assign("_ROOT.Voting_Queston",$GetQ['question']);
$tpl->assign("_ROOT.VotingID",$GetQ['votid']);

?>
