How can I use the iw_iterate tag inside the SCRIPT tag in a Presentation Template ?
The SCRIPT tag is used to hold the javascript code in thr PT.
I tried using iw_iterate inside the SCRIPT tag but that generated error.

First of all, post your query under TeamSite FormsPublisher (Templating) forum.

Can you post your presentation template for further investigation?

Are you sure that error is due to presence of iw_iterate tag inside SCRIPT tag and not due to something else?

Here , i want to use the whole code under one Script tag because the function is not getting called from the second Script tag .But i am unable to do that coz of the iwiterate tag !!

Sailesh

you can not use this inside the script tag.

you can retreive the value in a variable and then call that variable in your script.

[HTML]
var myVar = "$perlVariable";
[/HTML]

mmm, what is "pf.image alt tag"? I'm not sure, but should you really have spaces in your DCT field names?

please post error message and full TPL + DCT (text)

btw, everybody's problems are urgent, not only yours :rolleyes:

PS: I think your declaring and initialising that array a bit too often.

Should I call iw_iterate inside the script tag using a perl variable?
OR
Can you tell how I can pass a perl variable to a javascript code inside the script tag?

I shall be unable to post the full dct or PT. but i can tell you the error message is : Sytax error at the line marked by a red pointer.
and i have checked that space is not a problem in 'image alt tag ' .

Are you getting a JavaScript error after generating the page? Or is it templating error and your page is not generated?

Today I figured out something new! iw_iterate itself is not working!
The whole iw_iterate tag and the script inside it are getting written on the page generated, as it is.
What could be the problem?

Please tell why this code isnt iterating !!!

< iw_iterate> probably doesn't work inside CDATA block...

But this is the last time I chime in until I see the full TPL in text :-/

How can I use perl script in my code without iw_perl and cdata tag ?

You are trying to execute iw_iterate within CDATA. Instead try to close CDATA and then use iw_perl and iw_iterate tags.

Change:

<iw_pt name="Category Pages">
...

to just:

<iw_pt name="Category Pages"/>

and you can get rid of all the CDATA tags throughout your PT.

I did the same as shown in one attachment but but got the error as shown in the other attachment :

Post the actual code and not jpg images - and *maybe* someone will help you.

I did the same as shown in one attachment but but got the error as shown in the other attachment :

The problem is that it is very hard to debug errors in presentation templates. The error that you get is generally very vague. What I do in this scenario is that I rebuild my presentation template again step by step, so that I can figure out which particular part of code is giving me error. :eek:

If any of the tags is in ' qq ' like the following , will they not be parsed ?
Is there any other alternative of using ' qq '?

Please either post code in text form or attach a file with code in text form - posting images of your code does not allow for it to be quoted and thus takes much more effort on the part of people who might be willing to assist you in doing so.

That being said - the line that starts with:

my $rot .=

is the problem - $rot needs to be defined outside the loop and then the .= operator will work on appending items - though I'm not sure whether that's what you really want to do - and since I cannot look at the code while I'm composing this response - that's all you're going to get from me for now.

Well, that's your choice. We'll have some reason for not bothering to respond then - which is our choice.
