texte = [replacefounditems] doesn't apply in his case, because the replace is on a different database (events.db) than the search (carts.db)...This is,however, a perfect example of when to use a SWITCH/CASE instead of a bazillion SHOWIFs, and since the replace parameters are the same (only the data changes) for each option, I would put the data to be replaced into a text variable, then just use one REPLACE context:[switch value=[ITEM]][case value=R1][text]DATA=RETRIEVER1STATUS=PAID[/text][/case][case value=R2][text]DATA=RETRIEVER2STATUS=PAID[/text][/case]....etc....[case value=SV7][text]DATA=SUPERV7STATUS=PAID[/text][/case][default][text]DATA=[/text][/switch][showif [url][DATA][/url]!][Replace db=events.db&eqCOMPIDdatarq=[COMPID]&eqDOGIDdatarq=[DOGID]] [DATA][/Replace][/showif]This is just a style choice, but it makes maintenance much easier.Also, the [waitforfile] is not being used properly - it needs an ending [/waitforfile] tag.Brian FriesBrainScan SoftwareOn Jun 12, 2006, at 9:28 PM, Gary Krockover wrote:> Also, you might look into using a [replacefounditems] context > instead of the [replace] inside of the [founditems] loop.
