conditional filtering

[vpl]

Hi,

I would like to define a filter for listing values in a table which would be based on radio button value

I explain

I want to have 2 mode of selecting the filter criteria: 

   -  Either a $select which provides a list of preconfigured categories or

   -  <$edit-text tiddler="StdSearchInput" field="searchval"/> which allows entering a free text

then I would like to set a radio button to choose between these 2 options

My problem is that I don't know howw to position conditional filtering (based on the radio value) into the tiddlywiki filter expression ..

Any idea where I should start from ?

Vincent,

See The https://tiddlywiki.com/#subfilter%20Operator and note how myFilter is defined in the set widget. Others include a filter from a tiddler

filter="{tiddlerwithfilter}" or the whoile filter filter={{tiddlerwithfilter}}

However you could use the select widget and one of those options is your tiddler="StdSearchInput" field="searchval" or {{StdSearchInput!!searchval}}

The select will modify its state tiddler/field lets say select-state

<$list filter="{select-state}">....

More details on request.

Regards

Tony

Vincent,

In you set widget you have

filter="[searchType[Categ]]" value="[search:tags{!!sortfield}sort[tags]]"

This is incorrect because the result comes from either the filter OR the value. Once you correct that try again.

Hi Tony

Thanks a lot for your answer

I'm not sure I follow you ... sorry

This is incorrect because the result comes from either the filter OR the value....

In my code I want to set myFilter  to a given filter depending on the radio selection

That why I try to filter this way 

filter="[searchType[Categ]]"

hopping that depending on the local field SearchType which should be = to Categ or FreeT depending on the radio choice I will have 

myFilter = "[search:tags{!!sortfield}sort[tags]]" OR

              ="[search:title{!!searchval}reverse[]]">

Then I apply the subfilter in the $list ..

Please explain me again what is wrong in this filter. I've tried also filter="[{{!!searchType}}[Categ]]" but same result ..

Thanks again for your help
