[HOW TO] Use Variable in Title Row Colspan field

[veenuisthebest]

hii..

I wanted to know how can I use a variable like $mod_options[rowcolspan] in "Module Wrapper Template Options->Title Row Colspan"

It is accepting only integer values and not variables. I want to set it through one of my custom module settings.

Why not just set the colspan value within your PHP file for the module?

[veenuisthebest]

but that colspan value is defined in the adv_portal_module_wrapper template, right ?

This template is being wrapped around my custom template and it has colspan="$mods[colspan]" where $mods[colspan] is that colspan setting field.

So, how do I do it without disabling "Use Module Wrapper Template"

Thank you

Yes, but the template is not evaled until after the PHP code from the module is executed, so you can still set the $mods['colspan'] variable in your file.

thank you so much sir, that worked great ! This did it

PHP Code:

$mods['colspan'] = $mod_options['var_itemcount']; 


Just to let everybody know, that NOT setting this colspan value does not create any problem neither it gives a xhtml validation error. But is required by Google Chrome to display the module correctly. (works fine in IE and FF with/without it)

Thank you
