I am trying to display a printable calendar for our School Calendar.  We have decided to exclude all athletic events except for Varsity Football and Varsity Basketball.  I have a few drop-downs set up.  So I would like the event to not be displayed if the event has the "category" of "Athletics", and if the "level" is not "Varsity" and the "sport" does not equal "Football" or "Basketball".  My current code looks like this:

<%FOREACH EVENT%>
<% next if (((($EVENT->{details}->{category} eq "Athletics") && ($EVENT->{details}->{level} ne "Varsity")) && (($EVENT->{details}->{category} eq "Athletics") && ($EVENT->{details}->{sport} ne "Football"))) | | ((($EVENT->{details}->{category} eq "Athletics") && ($EVENT->{details}->{level} ne "Varsity")) && (($EVENT->{details}->{category} eq "Athletics") && ($EVENT->{details}->{sport} ne "Basketball")))); %>

But it doesn't work.  You can see the results here: http://lion.spx.org/calendar/calendar.pl?calendar=default&template=school_calendar_print9.html

Any help would be much appreciated.

** We have decided to exclude all athletic events except for Varsity Football and Varsity Basketball. **

I've simplified and changed your conditional expression somewhat, see if it will work now:

<% next unless ( $EVENT->{details}->{category} eq "Athletics" && $EVENT->{details}->{level} eq "Varsity" && ($EVENT->{details}->{sport} eq "Football" | | $EVENT->{details}->{sport} eq "Basketball") ); %>

        NOTE: There should NOT be a space between the | | in the above code. This forum software adds it.

Also, make sure the references "category", "level", "sport", "Athletics", "Varsity", "Football" and "Basketball" are all spelled exactly the same (case too) as the values defined in the script.

DanO, thanks for the response.  The code you provided takes out all events that are not Varsity Baskteball or Varsity Football.  This is a step, but I need all non-athletic events to show.  I only want events that are in the "Athletic" category and are not Varsity Basketball or Varsity Football to be skipped.  I hope I am making sense.

** I hope I am making sense **

Very confusing.

** The code you provided takes out all events that are not Varsity Baskteball or Varsity Football. This is a step, but I need all non-athletic events to show [*as well*] **

Maybe try:

<% next unless ( $EVENT->{details}->{category} ne "Athletics" | | ($EVENT->{details}->{category} eq "Athletics" && $EVENT->{details}->{level} eq "Varsity" && ($EVENT->{details}->{sport} eq "Football" | | $EVENT->{details}->{sport} eq "Basketball")) ); %>

PS. Don't forget about the | |
