Solved this with edited code below. Thanks to all who helped!
I have two records in my db. Each record has 6 fields (challengeId, partnerName, code, challengeTitle, description, image_url). I select a given partnerName from my parent page view to go to my child page view.
I was using a foreach loop and having problems. I have now taken out my foreach loop and replaced it with <?php $challengename = $this->challengenames[$k] = current($this->challengenames); ?>
but now cannot get the child page to display the values for challengeTitle that correspond to 'partnerName' I chose on my parent page. It always provides the challengeTitle value of the first record instead of the current record. I need to know how to make the challengeTitle value change depending on which partnerName I chose on my parent page.
Will making this a do while loop or if statement in the child page controller fix this?
Any advice (and code changes) is very much appreciated.
parent page controller
public function viewChallengesAction(){
//get instance for request
$request = JO_Request::getInstance();
//get activated challenge names and set variables
$myChallenge=$this->getChallenge();
$this->view->challengenames = array();
foreach($myChallenge AS $k=>$challengename){
$this->view->challengenames[$k]['href'] = WM_Router::create($request->getBaseUrl() . '?module=challenges&controller=index&action=yourChallenge?code=' . $challengename['partnerName']);
$this->view->challengenames[$k]['partnerName'] = $challengename['partnerName'];
}
CHILD VIEW
<div id="defaultcontainerwrapper" class="maxwidth">
<?php $challengename = $this->challenge; ?>
<header>
<h1>
<div class="list">
<span>Welcome to </span><?php echo $challengename['partnerName']; ?><span>'s Beat Waste Challenge!</span>
</div>
</h1>
</header>
<?php } ?>
</div>
CHILD CONTROLLER
public function yourChallengeAction(){
//get activated challenge names and set variables
$request = JO_Request::getInstance();
$myChallenge=$this->getChallenge();
$code = $request->getQuery("code");
$this->view->challengenames = array();
foreach($myChallenge AS $k=>$challengename){
if ($challengename['partnerName'] == $code)
{
$this->view->challenge = $challengename;
break;
}
}
If you don't know the key and want the current element of the array, you could use:
$challengename = current($this->challengenames);
Or the first element of the array:
$challengename = reset($this->challengenames);
Or the last element of the array:
$challengename = end($this->challengenames);
Just note that end and reset will change the pointer location of the array.
<?php $challengename = $this->challengenames[0] ?>
You are missing a last ; try add it agaign; try below:
<?php $challengename = $this->challengenames[0]; ?>
