I have the following to make a printable report. I need to modify it so it will only pull the current record (This action is pulling the entire query rather than the record in details view [this report link is only viewable on the current record details screen])

Code: Select all: <?php class actions_printable_report { function handle(&$params){ $app =& Dataface_Application::getInstance(); $query =& $app->getQuery(); if ( $query['-table'] != 'GENERAL' ){ return PEAR::raiseError('This action can only be called on the Listing table.'); } $GENERAL = df_get_records_array('GENERAL', $query); echo '<html><head>' .'<title>BWA Report v1.0</title>' .'<style type="text/css">' .' th { font-size: 60%;}' .' td { font-size: 60%;}' .' img { width:300px; height:145px; border-style:ridge}' .' img.logo { width:75%; height:100%; border:none }' .'</style>' .'</head>' .'<body>';

Thanks for taking the time to read my post!

Change

Code: Select all: $GENERAL = df_get_records_array('GENERAL', $query);

Code: Select all: $GENERAL = df_get_record('GENERAL', $query);

Thanks, Steve!

I have changed the code as you have instructed.

Now the very next line in the code throws an error:

Code: Select all: foreach ($GENERAL as $record){ $Address = $record->htmlValue('StreetNo').' '.$record->htmlValue('StreetName').' '.$record->htmlValue('City').', '.$record->htmlValue('State').' '.$record->htmlValue('Zip');

Fatal error: Call to a member function htmlValue() on a non-object (points to line with $Address = …)

The code works just fine when I call the records_array, It just cycles through all that are in the list view.

Thanks for your help!

Yes. df_get_record() returns a Dataface_Record object directly - not an array of records. You don’t need to loop through them anymore with a foreach loop.
