I am trying to check for the existance of a variable that is passed in the URL. The statement is as follows:

<!--#if cconnect==true--> (code block one) <!--#else cconnect==true--> (code block two) <!--#/if cconnect==true-->

You are using the python expression syntax, thus your expression must be quoted: <!--#if "cconnect==true"--> ... Note that you must have an object called true also. If you want to know if the cconnect request attribute is equal to the *string* 'true' you must say: <!--#if "cconnect=='true'"--> -Michel
