Displaying Multiple Property Names

[DeltaDave]

Hi Chris
I know this is a basic question but I cannot seem to find the answer here.
On the calendar display page the line below displays the Title (which I have set as 'Availability for') followed by the item id
<h2>'.$lang["title"].''.$id_item.'</h2>
But how do I get that item id to display the actual property name?
I know I have to define the actual property names relative to the ids but it escapes me how to do it.
I know it is basic but I have brain freeze!

Hi there Dave,
This could be done in various ways.
Ideally the item names would be in a database table with the name (and any other data) associated to the id.
Alternatively you could create an array of items like this:

Code: Select all

$items=array("1"=>"item 1", "2"=>"name 2","3"=>"name 3");

And then within the h2 tag display the item name like this:

Code: Select all

<h2>'.$items[$id_item].'</h2>

I hope this helps

Thanks Chris
I will give that a try and let you know how I get on.
