(SOLVED) Help on using TV output to assign classes to page elements.

Hi there,

I have a TV set up that allows the user to check a number of categories that a musician (in our case) belongs to.

On the musician list page, I have a Ditto call that lists all the musicians on one page.
What i want to do is have the categories assigned in the TV be added as classes to the div container in the list.

This works fine if only one category is selected. I get:

But if several categories are selected, I get:

So I need to find a way to be able to space the output of the TV to get:

Probably really simple, but I can’t get it to work.

I’ve tried among other things:
-Adding a space to the input values in the TV (orchestral ||funk || jazz )
-Using a delimiter list widget in the TV (just leaving a space goes back to the comma default, so I get <div class="jazz,funk,orchestral"></div>


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot for that advice.

I’ll try those out in a bit and let you know.

if($tv) {
$render = str_replace(",", " ", $tv);
return($render);
}

Thanks.  Looked at Phx (which I am using elsewhere) but couldn’t find any easy way of doing it.
Used the str_replace snippet and it worked a treat.

Changed str_replace(",", [glow=red,2,300]""[/glow], $tv); to str_replace(",", [glow=red,2,300]" "[/glow], $tv);
Don’t know if it would have made any difference.

Thanks a million.

I searched looking for an answer, did not find the one I wanted.

I needed this for a chunk and did not want the overhead of calling a snippet. I tricked the delimiter widget by using the ascii code for a space &#032;
