New problem with PHP plugin

16 years 3 weeks ago #2491 by Arnaud
Hi Emir !

I have a problem with a PHP Plugin i'm trying to develop (latest news). I can't find what's wrong with my code, so your help would be very appreciate !

I pass a variable in my url to filter on my news categories. Here is my URL with my variable 'cat' :

index.php?option=com_content&task=section&id=1&Itemid=2&cat=13


Now, here is my PHP code to extract my variable content :
$url = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
parse_str($url, $output);
$cat = $output['cat'];

And now my SQL code :
$query = "SELECT count(id) FROM #__content WHERE sectionid = '1' AND catid = $cat AND state = '1'";

When i execute my module, i have no result (Loading...). If i set the debug mode on, i can see my variable is passed :
SELECT count(id) FROM jos_content WHERE sectionid = '1' AND catid = 13 AND state = '1'

But, if i manually set "$cat = 13" in my php code, i have my module result !

I don't know why it's not working... Is there a problem with my PHP code or with the API ?

Thank you for your help, Emir !

I've activated debug mode in the plugin and I can see the content.

So the problem come from the API !

Emir ! Help, please ! :D
