I've noticed that in some of my DTML code I often times do something like this:
<dtml-if foo> <dtml-var foo> <dtml-else> Some default text </dtml-if>
I do this so that I can build a template and view it without getting key errors. It would seem that a simple extension to dtml-var could make this code a lot cleaner. Would it be terribly unreasonable to add a "default=xxx" parameter to dtml-var? My code above could then be rewritten:
<dtml-var foo default="Some default text">
You aren't far off. As of 2.1.x, try: <dtml-var foo missing="Some default text"> --Jeff --- Jeff K. Hoffman 704.849.0731 x108 Chief Technology Officer mailto:jeff@goingv.com Going Virtual, L.L.C. http://www.goingv.com/
