Hi-

I am using check boxes for a field that can have multiple values, and I would like to format these multiple values such that they are displayed as a list with commas. For example if the field is called Color and the selected values are:

Red
Green
Blue

and the user selected these in checkboxes, I would like to be able to display them on a template as: Red, Green, Blue

Right now they list with a space between them, but I'm hoping there's a way to get a comma in there, except on the last one...

Does anyone know how to do this?

Hi,

You would need code to do this. If you add into globals:

colors_formatted =>
where 'Colors' is the name of the field you have. Then just put <%colors_formatted%> where you want it displayed.

Cheers,

Hi Alex,

I'm trying to do this through page.cgi but can't get it work.

Using your code (and I've tried numerous others)
page.cgi?p=search_custom&d=1&f=hello&f=helloagain
just returns
hello

I understand this may not be enough information, but can you think of a reason why it wouldn't work.?

peace.
