spry rating widget AGAIN! :oS
by Richard Williams on Nov 19, 2008 at 9:34:13 pm

Hi all...

Ok, so my site is coming along very nicely, here is a link to the site so far if anyone wants to copy the scripting to help with any project...
http://www.rwdicky.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/fj/
There are currently three pages... the index, the reviews page and then the detailed review page.

On the detailed page, i have a spry table which is pulling in the XML data and it works just fine, but obviously, i would like to display the star ratings visually instead of just numbers. The RatingValueElement looks to be the possible answer, but i'm not entirelt sure...? I've seen it done, but only on server codes such as PHP etc, and i was wondering if anyone thinks that this is possible or if anyone knows how?
Thanks

Richard Williams

When I go to the site I don't see a ratings section that has numbers... what is the url of this page that you are referring to?

You could always do something like this:

Make images for each possible star rating and put them in your images folder - then code the detail field like this:

<img src="images/{StarRating}stars.jpg" />

FANTASTIC IDEA Abraham!

Not sure if it will work in a repeat list though... I'll give it a go later and report back

thanks Abraham

You are like a little Dreamweaver Buddha

If your ever in the UK, you can drink for free all week!

Thanks alot... i might even change the other page to do this instead of the spry widget as it is SO much easier for what i am trying to do, as im not really asking for people to rate anything.

Thanks man, i owe you 1247.
