Im getting a lot of "NOTICE: UNDEFINED VARIABLE:" while trying to display records on a detail page of mine...
this is an example...
http://seenstream.com/detail.php?Speakeasy-Ultra-Lounge-3

I thought I have the code right, but apparently I dont. Im thinking i have something wrong here...

<?php header('Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8'); ?>
<?php require_once "cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php"; ?>
<?php if (!@$GLOBALS['GEOCODER_PLUGIN']) { die("You must activate the Geocoder plugin before you can access this page."); } ?>
<?php

// get records
list($participating_barsRecords, $participating_barsMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'participating_bars',
'where' => whereRecordNumberInUrl(1),
'limit' => '1',
));
$record = @$participating_barsRecords[0]; // get first record

// show error message if no matching record is found
if (!$record) {
header("HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found");
print "Record not found!";
exit;
}

?>

Hi shawnpatoka,

Running out the door, but the only thing I can see off the top, (others with keener eyes may differ) is that in the participating_bars list records call you might try:

'where' => '', // load first record
'loadUploads' => true,
'allowSearch' => false,
'limit' => '1',

Best,

Jerry

Hi,

I think I can see the problem. I think your using the wrong variable name to try to display the items from the record. For example on line 73 you have

<?php echo htmlencode($participating_barsRecord['title']) ?>

But I think you should use:

<?php echo htmlencode($record['title']) ?>

This is because when you use getRecords it returns an array list of entries. This code on line 12 sets that first entry to a variable to make displaying them easier:

$record = @$participating_barsRecords[0]; // get first record and set it to a variable

Thanks!
Greg Thomas

That's why the IT folks get the big bucks.

They really understand what they're doing.
