It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 106794
interpreted = N
texte = If all you're doing is checking to see if a variable exists, why not do this?: [text]abc=123[/text] [text]def=[/text] [showif [abc]!]this stuff is shown[/showif] [showif [def]!]this stuff is hidden[/showif] All it takes is presetting the vars at the top of the page, then you don't have to screw around with [raw] or [interpret] ... or some new syntax that would require WebDNA to be rewritten. I've done this for years, it is so efficient and effective that I've never needed anything else. You don't even have to [url] the variable tags when you do it this way!
