Hi,
I have a checkbox group in my form. Whenever one of the checkboxes is checked, after submitting I get this message:

Notice: Array to string conversion in C:\wamp\www\jcms\templates\yougrids\yjsgcore\yjsg_core.php on line 18

And the actions which I set using custom code don't run.

I did some search on this but couldn't find something except using the handle arrays action, which I do.
I'm using RC 1.8, joomla 1.62, running locally with wamp server.
Can anyone Help?

Thanks

Hi Echo,

Hmmm . . . the error message is coming from your template?? Any idea why that should be?

I suggest that you contact Neo and ask him; I found a similar problem reported in the youjoomla forums.

PS I just downloaded a copy of the template and it looks as though line 18 is now commented out.

oh I didn't notice it was coming from the template, thanks from clarifying this. It's fine with a different template, I'll check it further.

In my opinion this notice pops up when the code expects a string but gets an Array.
Like for instance looping through the following array as an example:
$chapters = array(
'harvest' => array('Harvest Manual','Harvest on Time' => array ('monkey','snake','boa'),'Harvest Mecanized', 'Harvest Dammage','Harvest Various', 'Harvest Links'));
The first element of the $chapters[´harvest´] array is a string, the second element is an array and third again a string.
When you loop through this $chapters[´harvest´] (with for instance a foreach) array it will give the annoying notice. You can avoid this by building in the following test:
if(is_array($value))
{$value = $key;}
Because if it is an array you want in realty the key of that new array.
Hope this helps
