Daniel Scheiner	Sunday 23 April 2006 5:55:11 am Hi! I'm new to ezP so please forgive any questions that might turn out to be stupid or self-explanatory. =) I'm trying to create my first module. I have 2 PHP-files (guess you call them views) in my ezmymodul-folder. The first file/view -let's call it view1.php- <b>will be the first to be called from another server and that server will pass some POST-Variables to my view1.php</b>. So: I extract the POST-vars with the help of eZHTTPTool in my view1.php: $http =& eZHTTPTool::instance(); if ( $http->hasPostVariable( "keyword" ) ) $Keyword = $http->postVariable( "keyword" ); Now I want to pass this $Keyword - Variable to my second view, view2.php. But here's where I stumble... 1) How do I pass this Variable to my view2.php? 2) How do I access this Variable in view2.php? 3) Do I have to declare some Params in module.php for it to work? I would really appreciate any help on this subject! Thanks! Daniel
Präßler Sven	Monday 24 April 2006 1:44:51 am Yes define a param in the Module.php file for view2. $ViewList['view2'] = array( 'script' => 'view2.php', 'params' => array('keyword') ); 1. Pass the variable with the url like: www.mysite.de/intranet/mymodule/view2/myvariable 2.Access the variable by using: $view2Keyword = $Params['keyword'];

Hi!

I'm new to ezP so please forgive any questions that might turn out to be stupid or self-explanatory. =)

I'm trying to create my first module.
I have 2 PHP-files (guess you call them views) in my ezmymodul-folder.
The first file/view -let's call it view1.php- <b>will be the first to be called from another server and that server will pass some POST-Variables to my view1.php</b>.

So:
I extract the POST-vars with the help of eZHTTPTool in my view1.php:

$http =& eZHTTPTool::instance();
if ( $http->hasPostVariable( "keyword" ) )
    $Keyword = $http->postVariable( "keyword" );

Now I want to pass this $Keyword - Variable to my second view, view2.php.
But here's where I stumble...
1) How do I pass this Variable to my view2.php?
2) How do I access this Variable in view2.php?
3) Do I have to declare some Params in module.php for it to work?

I would really appreciate any help on this subject!

Thanks!

Yes define a param in the Module.php file for view2.

$ViewList['view2'] = array(
	'script' 	=> 	'view2.php',
	'params'		=>	array('keyword')
);

1. Pass the variable with the url like:

www.mysite.de/intranet/mymodule/view2/myvariable

2.Access the variable by using:

$view2Keyword = $Params['keyword'];
