iw_iterate

using Teamsite 5.5.2

It does not appear that the total amount of iterations is passed to the .tpl file. Is there an attribute for IW_iterate that will tell me the total amount of iterations it will go through. I see that "iteration" holds the value of how many it has done but I need the total amount it will do before entering the loop.

There's no "built in" <iw_****> tag to tell you the number of iterations. However, you can get that information inside of an <iw_perl> tag:

<iw_perl>my $iterations = iwpt_dcr_list('dcr.MyList');</iw_perl>



Iteration Count: <iw_value name='$iterations'/>
<iw_iterate list='dcr.MyList' var='node'>
 ...
</iw_iterate>

iw_dcr_list() returns a perl array (list) from the accessor string provided. In a list context like this, that results in a count of the number of elements in the list.
