How to establish wether or not a content container (like i.e. folder) is empty

Monday 06 December 2004 2:41:16 pm

Hi all!

I'm looping through a list of folders to crate a javascript/css menu structure and I would need to know how to establish wether ornot those folders are empty.

Is there a attribute for this? Or a fuction? Or some other magic way?

Cheers

Felix,

{let children=fetch(content,list,hash(parent_node_id,$node.node_id))}
    {section show=$children loop=$children}
        {$:item.name}
    {section-else}
        You don`t have any children
    {/section}
{/let}

You can use {section} as "If" instructions.

Even easier if you have already fetched the node:

$node.children_count
