    Passing dictionaryitem into a macro.

    Hi,

    I need to use an dictionaryitem inside my macro (UserControl). Not using code but as parameter.

    <
     
    umbraco:Macro ButtonText="Search" QueryText="Keywords" FromText="From" ToText="To" ....

    I need to use somthing like:

    <
     
    umbraco:Macro ButtonText="[#@$%Search]" QueryText=[#@$%"Keywords]" FromText="[#@$%From]" ToText="[#@$%To]"

    Is the a syntax for this problem?

    Thanks

    Hi Ron,

    I think not. Normaly you prefix a dictionary item with a #. Now this is also the prefix to pass a paramter to the macro, so this won't work. Now what you can do is pass the dictionary key to the User control and use umbrac.library.GetDictionaryItem to get the value.

    Cheers,

    Richard

    public string QueryText
    {
     
     get { return ltrQuery.Text; }
     
       set { ltrQuery.Text = library.GetDictionaryItem(value); }
    }
