You can check if the parent (usually a folder object, unless we are in a DTML Document, not a DTML method) has the special document object attribute. (tested) <dtml-if expr="_.hasattr(PARENTS[0], 'special_document_name')"> We have special_document <dtml-else> No joy. </dtml-if> This doesn't render the document or check to see if any of it's contents will raise a KeyError.

How can I test with an dtml-if, if a special document does exist?
