I have the following PHP, that needs to take a list of article ids and run it through a function to get them all from the database.
I am very much a beginner in PHP so far I have:
list($slide1, $slide2, $slide3, $slide4, $slide5) = explode(" ", $params->get('id'));
$a = array(
$item => $slide1,
"two" => $slide2,
// "three" => $slide3,
// "four" => $slide4,
// "five" => $slide5
);
foreach ($a as $k) {
$args['id'] = $k;
$item = ModArticleSlider::getArticles($args);
}
and the class:
class ModArticleSlider {
public function getArticles($args){
$db = &JFactory::getDBO();
$item = "";
$id = $args['id'];
if($id > 0){
$query = "select * ";
$query .= "FROM #__content WHERE id =".$id." AND state=1 " ;
//echo $query;
$db->setQuery($query);
$item = $db->loadObject();
}
return $item;
}
}
How would i get it so that instead of specifying $item to have it almost dynamic so that i can get all the selected articles and place them in different variables.. or would i have to place them in a array?
Any Advice/Answers Greatly Appreciated.
