Re: [SMARTY-DEV] cycle? is it a bug.....

Maybe that should go in the manual... Or even better the comments in the user manual which I'm working on as we speak ;-)))) Messju Mohr wrote:

COrrect .. so if the name is not there is interanlayy assign to default?? could it not set the name to a timestamp or something (as a static var) so that the collision does not occur ??

not that easy. despite of backwards compatibility issues, the cycle function can not tell on subsequent calls if it should create a new unique name or reuse one of the recent ones.

just an idea

i suggest you give *every* cycle a distinct name and stick to that. that's the clearest and easiest way. greetings messju

smarty configuration has this line $smarty->config_overwrite = false;

from the config file

cols = #ffffff cols = #ff00ff cols = #000000 in the template {cycle values=#cols# name="foo"} returns #ffffff #ff00ff #000000 #ffffff #ff00ff #000000 #ffffff #ff00ff For some reason it doenst work when the name value is missing so {cycle values=#cols#} returns #ffffff #ffffff #ffffff #ffffff #ffffff #ffffff #ffffff #ffffff is this a bug ?

works for me. omitting the name attribute is the same as setting name="default". maybe you have already another cycle without name (thus named "default") in your script and both reset each other everytime they are called.
