Surround content zone with html if not empty

Dee MacDermott

Hi,

I am new to Neto. I was wondering if there is a way to test if a contentzone with a certain id, e.g. id:'Menu [@name@]';%] is empty, and if not add a div with a class around the output.

I don't want to add it into the zone itself because I don't want it to be output if the zone is empty.

Thanks heaps,

Dee

Neto's B@SE language has some primitive programming-like structures which can help do more complex logic. The trick here it to store the content zone to a variable, then test if it's empty. Something like this should work:

 

[%set [@content_zone_value@]%][%content_zone id:'ZONEID' if_empty:''/%][%/set%]

[%if [@content_zone_value@]%]

<div class="my_class">

[@content_zone_value@]

</div>

[%/if%]
