Re: Sigma template

Hi Alexey, Thanks for responding. For the documentation part, simply cutting and pasting the toggle() function from the documentation on the latest release of Sigma along with the PHP calls (setCallBackFunction() especially) always returns the same value for func_bgcolor('#CCCCCC', '#F0F0F0') so all the columns are the same colour. If I do an echo "test" in the toggle() function, the "test" string appears only once because its return value is saved. Is this related to a problem with my configuration? And as for the dummy parameter, I understand this but since the dummy parameter has to be different for every call, I have to check in my templates when I add a new call to a callback function to make sure I don't already have the same parameter somewhere else, which is a hassle if the templates have a lot of callback function calls. I understand adding a flag to setCallBackFunction is likely not a good idea but there really ought to be a simple way to tell Sigma when a function will be returning different values even with the same parameters...
