Get {nb} value for total page count

[Tiffy]

Hi,

i need to output the footer only in the last page of my pdf. Is there any way that i can count the total number of pages and then compare the current page value with the last page value? If the current page value is equal to the last page value, then the footer will display.

Help needed here!

Thanks!

You seem to already have your logic sorted (kinda), we cant really help without seeing some code.

yes i have got the logic sorted out. But not sure how to get the value of total page count.

somthing like that.....

 

function Footer()
        {
            if($this->PageNo() < '{nb}') {
                $this->SetY(-20);
                $this->SetFont('Arial','',;
                $this->Cell(0,3,"content for the first pages",0,1,'C');//never displayed as '{nb}' is not defined yet I guess
            }
            else {
                $this->SetY(-20);
                $this->SetFont('Arial','',;
                $this->Cell(0,3,"content for the last page",0,1,'C');//always displayed
            }
            $this->SetFont('Arial','',;
            $this->SetTextColor(0,0,0);
            $this->Cell(0,10,'Page '.$this->PageNo().'/{nb}',0,1,'C');
        }

add this to the main functions in MPDF

 

 

 

function getPageCount() {
return count($this->pages);
}

 

 

then add a html-parser such string:

 

$html = str_replace('{PAGECNT}', $this->getPageCount(), $html);

 

then you can insert  {PAGECNT} in your parsed html to get the page count.
