<dtml-if our_score>our_score = <dtml-sqlvar our_score type="int" optional="true">,</dtml-if>

There is your problem, as Evan predicted. When our_score is zero, the test fails, since 0 is the value for a logical "false". Besides Evan's suggestion, you could convert to a string for the test - <dtml-if "_.str(our_score)"> But this would fail if the variable "our_score" did not exist. Really, I think you want to test for its existence, not its value, do you not? Cheers, Tom P
