named: [accessories code=``code'' arg=``attribute*, type*, field*, database*, name*, outboard*'']
positional: [accessories code attribute*, type*, field*, database*, name*, outboard*]
If not given one of the optional arguments, expands into the value of the accessories database entry for the product identified by code as found in the products database.
If passed any of the optional arguments, initiates special processing of item attributes based on entries in the product database.
See Item Attributes for a complete description of the arguments.
When called with an attribute, the database is consulted and looks for a comma-separated list of attribute options. They take the form:
name=Label Text, name=Label Text*
The label text is optional -- if none is given, the name will be used.
If an asterisk is the last character of the label text, the item is the default selection. If no default is specified, the first will be the default. An example:
[accessories TK112 color]
This will search the product database for a field named ``color''. If an entry ``beige=Almond, gold=Harvest Gold, White*, green=Avocado'' is found, a select box like this will be built:
<SELECT NAME="mv_order_color">
<OPTION VALUE="beige">Almond
<OPTION VALUE="gold">Harvest Gold
<OPTION SELECTED>White
<OPTION VALUE="green">Avocado
</SELECT>
In combination with the mv_order_item and mv_order_quantity variables this can be used to allow entry of an attribute at time of order.
