rsMakeFromList

Creates a single-column ResultSet from an option list.

Type and Usage

Parameters

Takes two required parameters and one optional parameter:

  • The first parameter is the name of the ResultSet to be created.

  • The second parameter is the name of an existing option list (for example, docAccounts or xMyCustomField.options).

  • The third optional parameter is the name of the ResultSet column. If no value is specified, the column name defaults to row.

Output

Creates a ResultSet with one column, populated by the values in the specified option list.

Example

Creates two ResultSets called ListA and ListB from the securityGroups and docAuthors option lists:

<$lista = "securityGroups"$>
<$rsMakeFromList("ListA", lista)$>
<$rsMakeFromList("ListB", "docAuthors", "name")$>
<table border=2>
    <tr><td>Security Groups</td><td>Authors</td></tr>
    <tr>
        <td><$loop ListA$><$row$><br>
        <$endloop$></td>
        <td><$loop ListB$><$name$><br>
        <$endloop$></td>
    </tr>
</table>

The ResultSets would look like the following.

@ResultSet ListA
1
row
Public
Secure
@end
@ResultSet ListB
1
name
hchang
pkelly
sysadmin
user1
@end

The resulting HTML would look like the following.

ListA ListB
Security Groups Authors
  hchang
Public okelly
Secure sysadmin
  user1
