Hello,
I'm trying to build a simple table based on Units and Chapters, where the
number of Units will vary, and where Units can contain a variable number of
chapters, chapters increment from 1 to the total number. The table will
eventually pull in additional data, but I thought I'd start small.
For example
Unit1 Chapter1
Chapter2
Unit2 Chapter3
Unit3 Chapter4
Chapter5
Chapter6
Unit4 Chapter7
My difficulty seems to be how to get the chapters to increment when I try
nested loops. I've been banging my head a while, and this is as close as I've
gotten.
<!--- Set Variables for Course Structure, key values are number of chapters in
each Unit--->
<cfset Unit=StructNew()>
<cfset Unit.Unit1=1>
<cfset Unit.Unit2=3>
<cfset Unit.Unit3=5>
<cfset Unit.Unit4=2>
<cfset Unit.Unit5=2>
<!--- Set up Loop for adding total chapters. unitNumber = number of chapters in
course. --->
<cfset Units=StructCount(Unit)>
<cfset unitNumber = 0>
<cfloop index="i" From="1" To = "#Units#">
<cfset count=StructFind(Unit, "Unit#i#")>
<cfset unitNumber = #UnitNumber# + count>
</cfloop>
<cfoutput>
<table>
<tr>
<th>
Unit Number
</th>
<th>
Chapter Number
</th>
<td>
</tr>
<cfloop from="1" to="#Units#" index="i">
<tr>
<td>
<a href="Unit#i#.cfm">Unit#i#</a>
</td>
<td>
<a href="Chapter#i#.cfm">Chapter #i#</a>
</td>
</tr>
<cfif StructFind(Unit, "Unit#i#") GT 1>
<cfset chapterNumber = i>
<cfset count=StructFind(Unit, "Unit#i#")-1>
<cfloop from="1" to = "#count#" index="j">
<cfset chapterNumber=1+chapterNumber>
<tr>
<td>
</td>
<td>
<a
href="Chapter#chapterNumber#.cfm">Chapter#chapterNumber#</a>
</td>
</tr>
</cfloop>
</cfif>
<tr>
<td>
</td>
</tr>
</cfloop>
</table>
</cfoutput>
Thanks,
