CMS Made Simple Forums

I have a form where you can select an item via a checkbox and type in a textfield how many of that item you wish to order.

My problem is a bit difficult to explain and I simpy can't wrap my head around it.

I need to write the result to a flat text file. But insteadt of having the file look like this:

Item name
Amount 3

I need to duplicate the result so it ends up like this

Item name
Item name
Item name

If of course the amount is 1 it shouldnt duplicate at all.

My fields looks like this: Any help is highly appreciated

I think you will have to make a user defined tag for that. Something like this:
and then call it with {item name=$itemname amount=$amount}

Smarty 3 will have native support for while-loops so you might be able to do this with only smarty if you can wait for Smarty 3 to appear in CMS MS (maybe in CMS 1.11)

Uhm... see the 'repeat' command in the tags menu?

Calguy1000 I saw that one but it doesnt help. If the customer types 10 it has to repeat 10 times etc.

And btw ty for all the good work you have done with cmsms
