Hi Mohan,
I'm trying to display/hide a cck field based on the input given in another field. My situation is i need to show a cck text field based on the server time...if it doesn't matches, I need to display another cck text field.
here is what I've done: I created a content type with the following: - a Date field named "due_date" - a Text field named "answer" - a Computed field named "computed"
Then I've given this code to the "computed" field:
$answer = $node->field_answer[0]['value']; $t = getdate(); $today_timestamp = $t[0]; $due_date_timestamp = strtotime($node->field_duedate[0]['value']);
if ($today_timestamp >= $due_date_timestamp){ $node_field[0]['value'] = $answer; }else{ $node_field[0]['value'] = "The answer will be shown on " . date('D, m/d/Y - H:s',$due_date_timestamp); }
As you can see from the code, the "if" statement compares the timestamps, then returns the answer or a notice about the due date, depending on the comparison.
Hope this is what you wanted to do - of course you have to hide the "answer" field from display. The code above could be easily adapted to display another field instead of that notice.
I don't know how to do the same work inserting the result into the node's body, I might have a try at it if nobody else has a quick pointer about the solution to your additional request.
Have fun, Francesco
