RE: Inserting a variable argument into a Silverstripe template's function?

Inserting a variable argument into a Silverstripe template's function?

I am trying to pass a variable to a template control function. Is the above answer still current for SS3? Or is there a better way of doing it now?

Thanks, Rob

passing dynamic values to function calls in templates is possible in silverstripe 3. try the following:

Page class:

public function testfunc($myval) {
    return 'value is '.$myval;
}

public function testval() {
    return 'foobar';
}

Page template:

$testfunc($testval)

this will output 'foobar' in your template as expected.

note that the control directive is deprecated in ss3, use loop or with instead (see http://doc.silverstripe.org/framework/en/reference/templates)
