New tablequery module in the works!

posts: 5

I found this cool piece of code (tiki-querytable.php) which has not been advertised as much as it should have been. Anyways, I could not find out who the author is from the source code. So here are some questions to the author:

a) Wanted to know who is working on tiki-querytable.php module.

b) Would like to understand a little bit about the status and the design of this module.

c) Finally, using this code, I have fixed the {querytable} wikitag (which did not exist before, but I think that was the intention, so I went ahead and coded it - in my own way).

Who can go over the design before I send in my patch?

I tested it with a couple of tables and wonder of wonders it {tablequery ...} tag works. The idea is very very neat. I am glad I discovered this code, because I was about to sit down and write something like that - for me it is a pretty hard task.

Looks like only the security issues are yet to be completed.

cheers

Hi,

That file was created by the original author Luis. I dont like the sound of {querytable} sounds to me like too much of a security issue to have working by default in Tiki Installations.

Maybe its best for it to be in a ZIP package on mods.tikiwiki.org neutral

Hi Swayambhu - How does tablequery differ from sqlplugin?
