Totally bamboozled

tsrookie

Gidday all,

This one kept me up all night.

I have created a component template that takes care of all the stuff normally between the html head tags, in this instance the page metadata is not working whilst all the other parameters received by the component are being injected.

I know the meta data is received because it is being printed out to my log file but I just can't get it to print to the page any ideas.

Regards
Colin

My header component

<iw_pt name="htmlheader"/>
<iw_perl>

# Debug module
use egov:ebugLog;
my $DEBUG = 1;

my $debug = new egov:ebugLog ($DEBUG, "/tmp/pageheader".".log");

my $subBranch = $iw_arg{subBranch};
my $useContentLayout = $iw_arg{useContentLayout};
my $grandParent = $iw_arg{grandParent};
my $metaData = $iw_arg{metaData};

$debug->printlog("subBranch $subBranch");
$debug->printlog("useContentLayout $useContentLayout");
$debug->printlog("grandParent $grandParent");
$debug->printlog("metaData $metaData");



</iw_perl>

Hi,

seems to be really strange...
just an idea.. seems that you write the whole tag <meta....>, maybe there are some problems with the "<". have you tried something like this...

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<iw_perl>
iwpt_output($metaData);
</iw_perl>
<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen" href="/includes/css/qg.css" type="text/css">
....

or try to use double-quots instead of single...?!
<iw_value name="$metaData" />
