Hello all you PHPTalians,
I'm attempting to create an 'abbrev' custom PHPTAL modifier. It would, if
the value is over a certain length, output it wrapped in an <abbrev> tag,
with the value appended by '...'. I intended to use it like this:
<span tal:content="abbrev: /some/path" />
To this end I devised this function:
function phptal_tales_abbrev( $src, $nothrow ) {
return 'elided_html('.phptal_tales(' structure ' . $src,
$nothrow).','.$limit.')';
}
where elided_html does the magic. However, this generates an error:
PHPTAL Exception
*Invalid TALES path: 'structure /some/path', expected 'structure
/some/path' to be variable name*
Is there something simple I'm missing? I understand I *could* do:
<span tal:content="structure abbrev: /some/path" />
and change the function accordingly, which isn't really that bad, but I'm
curious as to if my original idea should work?
Sincerely,
Chris
