Please describe in detail the issue you are having:

First of all a good 2011 and happy new year.

I have added an extra field with checkbox to allow the registered advertiser to turn on or off the rating module.
I found the below function in the forum which I think is usefull.

<?php
function smarty_function_mycheckbox($params, &$smarty)
{
global $db,$modules;
$id = '';
$fid = '';
foreach ($params as $_key=>$_value) 
{
switch ($_key) 
{
case 'id':
case 'fid':
$$_key = (int)$_value;
break;
}
}
if($fid >0)
{
$sSQL = "SELECT fName FROM ".PREFIX."fields WHERE fID='".$fid."'";
$result=$db->query($sSQL);
if($result->isError())
{
return false;
}
if($result->size()>0)
{
$rs=$result->fetch();
}
}
if($id > 0)
{
$sSQL = "SELECT sValue FROM ".PREFIX."products_fields WHERE pID='".$id."' AND fID=".$fid;
$result=$db->query($sSQL);
if($result->isError()) 
{
return false;
}
if($result->size()>0)
{
$rs=$result->fetch();
$rs['sValue']=str_replace(" | ", ", ", $rs['sValue']);
$check=str_replace("|", "", $rs['sValue']);
}
}
if($check != NULL)
{
?>
<img src="http://www.yourdomain.com/photos/paypal.jpg">
<?php
}
}

Instead of <img src="http://www.yourdomain.com/photos/paypal.jpg"> I use....

if($check != NULL)
{
?>
{assign var="rating" value=$smarty.const.FILESYSTEM_PATH}
{include file="$rating/modules/rating/templates/listing_rating.tpl"}
<?php
}
}

Unfortunaytely this seems not to work? With a picture or just text the function works mighty fine!

If I change the code to...

if($check != NULL)
{
$ratemylisting="Y";
echo $ratemylisting;
}
}

and in viewlisting.tpl to..

{mycheckbox id=$view fid=3}
{if $ratemylisting=="Y"}
{dynamic}
{assign var="rating" value=$smarty.const.FILESYSTEM_PATH}<br/>{include file="$rating/modules/rating/templates/listing_rating.tpl"}
{/dynamic}
{/if}

then this also don't work (it echo the Y correctly!)

Who can give me some direction. What do I overlook?

Thank you in advance.

I didnt look to closely but the following sticks out..

{assign var="rating" value=$smarty.const.FILESYSTEM_PATH}<br/>{include file="$rating/modules/rating/templates/listing_rating.tpl"}


its assigning a value of "rating" to the variable $rating and using it in the path so the path is...

rating/modules/rating/templates/listing_rating.tpl

I think if you look thats not a valid path to the template needed.

Larry,

I thought also a path issue, but I have tried everything already related to the path's.
I assume it is something with the function or the smarty part

What I want to do is to give the user the oppurtunity to turn on or off the rating module, see the Rating mod rating-v1.7.1.zip - elbmods - Rating v1.7.1 - Project Hosting on Google Code

but no joy yet...

In viewlisting.tpl I have added

 {capture name='foo'}
{myratingcheckbox id=$view fid=3}
{/capture}
{$smarty.capture.foo}
{if $smarty.capture.foo=="YES"}
{include file="http://www.kidsspullen.nl/modules/rating/templates/listing_rating.tpl"}
{/if}

and in the function file

 if($check != NULL)
{
$output ="YES";
return $output;
}
}

It shows nice YES on my site but not the rating mod....

Ok. after a lot of trial and error I have..

{capture name=foo}
{mycheckbox id=$view fid=3}
{/capture}
{$smarty.capture.foo}
{if $smarty.capture.foo=="N"}
text A
{elseif $smarty.capture.foo=="Y"}
text B
{/if}

Depends on the checkbox checked or not it display the {$smarty.capture.foo} Y if checked and N if not checked.
Unfortunately I don't see why te below part don't work...It drives me

{if $smarty.capture.foo=="N"}
text A
{elseif $smarty.capture.foo=="Y"}
text B
{/if}

Who can help me with this?

Thank you in advance.

Im having a hard time understanding the above quoted content. Your saying the upper bit of smarty works but the bottom doesnt? Are you replaceing the whole top bit of code with the bottom bit of code in the same template?

[zooi +]

Larry,

Sorry I was not clear

This works

{capture name=foo}
{mycheckbox id=$view fid=3}
{/capture}
{$smarty.capture.foo}

it output a Y or a N

And after above mentioned I have

{if $smarty.capture.foo=="N"}
text A
{elseif $smarty.capture.foo=="Y"}
Text B
{/if}

And in this part something is wrong .. at least I think. I does not show Text A nor Text B

[Lhotch +]

{$smarty.capture.foo} should be giving you some output, what does it show?

[zooi +]

if the checkbox of the extrafield is checked it give as output Y
and if the checkbox of the extrafield is not checked it give as output N
so far so good. But if I want to use this output in the

{if $smarty.capture.foo=="N"}
text A
{elseif $smarty.capture.foo=="Y"}
text B
{/if}

then it don't work and no text A (n)or text B appear.

I'm getting quite confused with what you are saying and your posted code. Bear in mind that Smarty is not "AJAX" javascript.

Personally, I think you're overcomplicating this quite a bit and going about it in an the incorrect way. Unless I'm misunderstanding your goal. You are wanting to either show output or not show output from a module, based on an extra field that you have elsewhere (in the actual template???).

If it were me and you wanted to offer this as an option on a per listing basis, then you should set up a standard extra field and assign it to each category that you want to offer the option to. Set it to NOT display in the listing.

Then modify the actual module that you either want to display the output of or not. In the function that would display this in the template, precede it with and if statement that checks what the value of the extra field is. If it's set to "N" return FALSE, else run the rest of the existing code.
