texte = Kim,Figure out where the value of [title_req] is coming from.Is it a db field? or is it a formvar?When displaying the value of [somevar] on a page:if [somevar]'s value is coming from a formvar, then it will display as [somevar] IF that formvar has NOT been passed in (like with a checkbox that was not checked), BUTif [somevar]'s value is coming from a formvar, then it will display as (that's nothing at all in between those quote marks) WHEN that formvar has been passed in w/ a value equal to the null string (i.e. it = zero characters), BUTif [somevar]'s value is coming from a db field, then it will display as (that's nothing at all in between those quote marks) WHEN that db field has nothing in it. so in your case I have to assume that [showif [url][title_req][/url]!][text]complete=F[/text][/showif] does not evaluate to show its contents because 'title_req' has NOT been assigned the null string value, which is what you are comparing to.Hope I got that right ;-)-John Kim Ingram wrote:> Nope...the [url]'s don't seem to fix it.
