[opencms-dev] question about nested content

[Tim Daschner]

Hi borja,

Thanks for the reply. Yes, your idea is good, the problem I have is that in
our model we have more than one nested elements that may each nest multiple
nested elements. So, my jsp has a sequence of contentload, contentloop,
contentshow that are nested. In this nested jsp, I don't seem to get my
values correctly and that's where the confusion is.

Best,
Sachin

Hi Tim,

I'm gonna try to explain you what you have to do for working all these
things out and why it doesn't work. Well, in the first xml content you have
a VFS field, where you edit a path, everything ok till here. Although the
path is pointing to another xml content, it doesn't matter, it is just a
path, so there's no more information in this field.
So If you write in your jsp
<cms:contentload><cms:contentloop><cms:contentshow> you are getting the
directions, the paths which you edited previously.
The way that I solve this is keeping the path in the pageContext and then I
open another <cms:contentload>. This is an example:

<cms:contentload collector="XXX" param="XXX"  >
     <cms:contentcheck ifexists="FieldVFS">
           <cms:contentloop element="FieldVFS">

                <c:set var="myPath"> <cms:contentshow/> </c:set>
                <cms:contentload collector="singleFile"
param="%(pageContext.myPath)"  >
                      // Your code here
                </cms:contentload>

           </cms:contentloop>
     </cms:contentcheck>
</cms:contentload>

As you can see, we get the path from the first xml and then we get the
information of the nested xml content.  I hope to help you.
