Weird [blank] interpretation
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 1999
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 25589
interpreted = N
texte = Here's something very odd. I've got code that checks to see if the shiptoaddress in one of our dbs is blank. If it is, it prints out the billing address and hides the shipping address.The problem is that on one entry, WebCatalog is interpreting the shipto as blank, even when it has data in it.The code:[hideif [shiptoaddress1]=] [shiptoname]
[ShipToAddress1]
[hideif [shiptoaddress2]=][shiptoaddress2]
[/hideif][ShipToCity], [shiptostate] [shiptozip] [shiptocountry]
[/hideif][showif [shiptoaddress1]=] [name]
[Address1]
[hideif [address2]=][address2]
[/hideif] [City], [state] [zip] [country]
[/showif] The one customer for whom this is happening has a shiptoaddress1 that contains this text: Don't open Until Christmas!In other words, if I put a [shiptoaddress1] outside of the hideif, the text string displays on the page. If I look in the db, I see the text string just as I do when it displays--no extra funky characters, no spaces, no weird stuff. Anyone have any ideas what gives?Thanks, Maurice Rickard | GreenMarketplace.com: Director of Creative & Production | Natural Products for you http://www.greenmarketplace.com/ | and your planet.------------------------------------------------------------- Brought to you by CommuniGate Pro - The Buzz Word Compliant Messaging Server.
