This tag is a special argument tag to the assetset:getmultiplevalues
tag that specifies the content of the sort list.
<assetset:sortlistentry attributetypename="attribute type" attributename="attribute name" [direction="ascending|descending"] />
attributetypename
(required)attributename
(required)attributetypename
) to be added to the sort list.direction
(optional) ascending
. This tag provides a shorthand way of specifying the sort list to be used in the assetset:getmultiplevalues
tag. Rather than using the listobject
tag family, this set lets the sort list be populated directly as nested tags inside the assetset:getmultiplevalues
tag.
The rules for the sort list are defined in the assetset:getmultiplevalues
tag.
The possible values of errno
include:

-10004 |
A required parameter is missing . |
The following example, taken from the FirstSite Mark II Product_C Summary template, retrieves several attributes from the Product_C asset.
In this tag, most of the attribute values are set from other variables in the variable space, either because they have been passed in, or because they have been explicitly looked up.
The following table describes the origin of the ICS variables referenced below.
Variable name | Origin |
---|---|
site | The site variable is set as a resarg in all of the templates and SiteEntry assets. As such, it can be expected to be set correctly to the name of the current site. |
tid | The tid variable is set in the resargs of the called template. Because this code is in a Template, the tid attribute is set to the value of the tid variable. If this code had been located in a CSElement, this attribute would have been set to the value of the eid variable and the ttype attribute would also have been set to CSElement . See above for details. |
c | The c variable is specified on the URL and is passed unchanged into the Layout template. |
cid | The cid variable is specified on the URL and is passed unchanged into the Layout template. |
tname | The tname variable is set immediately above the render:calltemplate tag in the Layout template. It is set using the render:lookup tag, which effectively looks up the actual value of the template name to be rendered. For reasons relating to template replication, it's not a good idea to hard-code asset names in templates. The render:lookup tag provides an abstraction around hard-coding attribute values. Out of the box, however, the FSIILayout template sets the name of the head template as FSIIHead , and as such the variable tname resolves to FSIIHead . |
p | The variable p is specified on the URL and is passed unchanged into the layout template. |
