Re: Dynamically Display Red Dots Using For Loop

[Gavin Cope]

Remove the PreExecute tags and view source and you'll see why you get an error.

You won't be able to dynamically build red dots like that, the process order won't allow it.

Help,

Does anyone know how to dynamically display reddots using a for loop?

I am trying to make a portlet for Reddot and I'm running into a snag. I have the code below to dynamically display reddots based on how many the user wishes to display. 

I am getting the Pre-Excute error screen and I'm not sure where to go from here. 

Here's the code:

<%
For i = 1 to <%stf_ToggleCount%>
   If i > 20 Then Exit For  
   response.write("<!IoRedDot_stf_Title_" & i & ">")
Next
%>

I hope that makes enough sense. If it doesn't I'd love to elaborate further. 

Thanks for your help, 

Todd

I remembered this little piece of JS that was written by Jian Huang which might give you a base for a workable solution.  Essentially the idea is to put your reddot for each title you want to show or hide inside a DIV with an ID.  As each RedDot is always shown in the page (when activated),  the JS can then be set to hide any DIV where the ID meets a specific quantifiable value, so the user doesn't see the RedDot's that are not needed.
