Listing only leaves-documents

Hi,

How could I list documents that aren’t parent of any other ?

Any special Wayfinder configuration ?

I’m designing a site with products ordered into many categories and subcategories (i.e. folders).
A visitor can ask information for any product, presented by a distinct document.

What I want to do is a panel of checkboxes listing all available products (i.e. titles of documents that are leaves) and check boxes corresponding to products for which informations are requested.

Thanks for any help.

All docs are assigned `0` as parent, you can use ditto tagging by tv or tagsource some other field e.g. longtitle...

//Wayfinder ---> &excludeDocs=`...`

Thanks a lot.
Ditto might be the right snippet for my need.

I looked at the linked documents and installed the tvEditor module.
tvEditor/tvExplorer look very powerful to build search forms.
I’ll probably take the time to learn them.
But for my simple needs, it looks a little bit complicated.

I don’t want to make a search form but just to list all available products which are about 20 and have one checkbox for each product name.

Maybe the easier way will be hacking a little bit the database with a PHP/MySQL request to find if a document has any child and exclude it from the list if it has.

Some details about my project
On each product page will be one checkbox that a visitor can click to tell if he wants more information about a product. There will also be an "array" of checkboxes summarizing which products the visitor is interested in. I plan to use some cookie to transmit the state of this "checkboxes panel" from one page to another.

Thanks Ganesh,

For 2009, I hope reading the docs more carefully...

&hideFolder=`1` should do what I expect.

Still a small problem with my Ditto call which is inside a Wayfinder chunk :

I tried adding one more [ ] sandwich, but the squared parenthesis displayed. Should I escape some chararacters ?

Solved !

I had to alternate the cached and uncached modes for snippet calls as one is inside another.

In my case, this is the configuration for a Wayfinder row :

The Wayfinder snippet is called cached ( [[Wayfinder? ]] ), so Ditto must be called uncached ( [!Ditto? !] ).

hideFolders, that ganeshXL mentioned was the right parameter to only list documents that are leaves.

The code above displays a checkbox for each document in a product category.
The name of product categories are displayed in the <h3>...</h3> sandwich.
