Hi,
I'm having trouble getting the setup and syntax correct.
I have a Z search interface set up. When called, it returns a list of "staff" stored in an SQL database. First Name, Last Name, and Staff ID.
I am then trying to create a hypertext link that, when clicked, will bring up a bio page for individual staff in the result list.
<tal:x repeat="result batch" >
<tr>
<td><a href="showStaff?staff_id=<span tal:replace="result/staffid">staffid goes here</span>">
<span tal:replace="result/firstname">firstname goes here</span>
<span tal:replace="result/lastname">lastname goes here</span></a></td>
</tr>
</tal:x>
<td><a href="showStaff?staff_id=<span tal:replace="result/staffid">staffid goes here</span>">
That line doesn't work. What I want to do is autogenerate the URL to include the staffid for each staff that appears in my results list, then this url should go to the SQL Method, and pass the id through the form, to bring up a new results page. Perhaps I need a Python Script in the process?
My first problem, however, is to solve how to autogenerate a URL with a unique staffid. e.g. something like: /showStaff?staff_id=3000, /showStaff?staff_id=3306, /showStaff?staff_id=2814, etc.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. I've read through some of the TAL and DTML manuals, but I'm just not making very good headway. However, if there is a document out there which covers this, I'd be happy to read through it.
Thanks,
Culley
