I figured out how to NOT show specific events by doing something like this:

<%FOREACH EVENT%>
<% next if ($EVENT->{details}->{title} =~ /text here/); %>

So that would not show events in my SSI with anything that would have the "text here" part. But I'm looking to do the exact opposite. I want to be able to show ONLY events that have "text here". I know the answer must be staring me in the face, but I just don't know enough yet to figure it out. Help would be appreciated.

Here is a stripped down version of the SSI I'm using:

<%
&getEvents( {'startdate'=>'19990101', 'enddate'=>'20050101'} );
$DAY = $Grid->{'grid'}->

• ->
• ;
  $EVENTS = $DAY->{events};
  $total_events=0;
  %>

  <center><DL>
  <%EVENTLOOP:%>
  <%FOREACH EVENTLIST%>
     <%IF EVENTS EXIST%>
     
        <%FOREACH EVENT%><% next if ($EVENT->{details}->{title} =~ /pr.gif/); %>
                    <DT><%=$DAY->{dayname}%>, <%=$DAY->{monthname}%> <%=$DAY->{dd}%><br>
                     <%$total_events++;%><%if (total_events == 5) { last EVENTLOOP; } %>
           <% if ($_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "ALL" | | $_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "START") { %>
              <% if ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'}) { %><%= SCHEDULE FIELD(start_time) %><% } %>
           <% } %>
           <% if ($_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "ALL") { %>
              <% if ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'end_time'}) { %>-<%= SCHEDULE FIELD(end_time) %><% } %>
           <% } %>
           <% if (($_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "ALL" | | $_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "START") && ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'})) { %> : <% } %>
           <%= $EVENT->{'details'}->{'title'} %><br><%= EVENT FIELD(description) %></font><br><br>
        <%/FOREACH%>
     <%/IF%>
  <%/FOREACH%>
  </DL></center>
  <%unless($total_events){%>
  <CENTER><I><%= $_NO_EVENTS_LABEL %></I></CENTER>
  <% } %>

** <% next if ($EVENT->{details}->{title} =~ /text here/); %> **

You can try

<% next unless ($EVENT->{details}->{title} =~ /text here/); %>

or

<% next if ($EVENT->{details}->{title} !~ /text here/); %>

(note the !~ in place of =~)

Both should do the same thing.

Of course you're a genius. But I am your idiot
