Creating form to select which part of the site to enter

Bernhard Reiter	Friday 04 March 2005 4:17:52 am Hello, I am new to ezPublish and still have a lot to learn. So my question is: Suppose you have two different parts of the site which look the same but have different content and some menus are changed. So before entering the site you have to choose which one to enter. Its obvious you need a form for that but how to do it? I fist wanted to do it like this: http://www.ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/incoming/http_post_to_url_conversion but then i realized that you need an content object to access the form. Sure i could make an empty one, but i am asking myself if there is an easier way to accomplish this. Any suggestions?
Łukasz Serwatka	Friday 04 March 2005 5:08:25 am Hi Bernhard, You can do this using two links with different variable value for every part of your site. For example. mysite.com/siteaccess/(variable)/value In templates: {section show=eq($view_parameters.var, 'value')} display content, include tpl {section-else} do something else {/section} You can also use two siteaccess. http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/incoming/design/designs_and_siteaccesses I hope it will help.

Hi Bernhard,

You can do this using two links with different variable value for every part of your site.

For example.
mysite.com/siteaccess/(variable)/value

In templates:

{section show=eq($view_parameters.var, 'value')}
display content, include tpl
{section-else}
do something else
{/section}

You can also use two siteaccess.

I hope it will help.
