how do i get the $params->get to work from within a function ?

Hi ,

Joomla 1.0.13 problem...

I'm trying to write a module that has several parts...
I splitted up the functions of my module into functions, but the data that i retrieve through the function is not sowing up...

I go to my page and it standard shows content , when submitting to that same page its showing other content depending on what is submitted
I have several submits , so i putted al the possebilitys into several functions

that function then gets the data from the params in the module.xml file and then my table / page and so on is build in the same script and put into 1 variable , and that variable is set into a template that is then shown by the html output.

All of that works fine except of the data that i try to retrieve with the get--> $param
all i get is the default value...

Joomla help quote

The mosParameters class constructor takes two arguments, the first the textual parameter values retrieved from the database, and the second in the xml setup file where the parameters are defined. See the following example:

global $mainframe;

$option = 'com_content';

// get params definitions
$params =& new mosParameters( $menu->params,  $mainframe->getPath( 'com_xml', $option ), 'component' );

To display the parameters pass the params variable to your display function and simply echo the text returned by the "render" method, for example:

render();
}
?>

mod_whois.php

Code: Select all

function ToonPakketPrijzen($joomlaref, $debug)
	{
                                
		global $mainframe;
		
          $params = & new mosParameters( $module->params , $mainframe->getPath( 'com_xml', 'mod_whois' ), 'module' );
		
		$pakketn1 = $params->get( 'naam1', 'Pakket 1' );
		$pakketn2 = $params->get( 'naam2', 'Pakket 2' );
		$pakketn3 = $params->get( 'naam3', 'Pakket 3' );
		
		$webruimte1 = $params->get( 'webr1', '5 MB' );
		$webruimte2 = $params->get( 'webr2', '6 MB' );
		$webruimte3 = $params->get( 'webr3', '7 MB' );
                }

mod_whois.xml

Code: Select all

</mosinstall>

I dont get the params to work in a function...

So how do i get the $params->get to work from within a function ?

Found the solution to the problem..

putting following code to the main body of the .php file

Code: Select all

$params = & new mosParameters( $module->params);

passing it on to the functions that need it...

Code: Select all

ToonWhois($joomlaref,$debug, &$params);

Call the parameters from within the function

Code: Select all

$respond1 = $params->get( 'respond1', 'Geen' );
