Alex Jones	Tuesday 05 August 2003 8:59:49 am Selmah, I finally hit the point where I have to answer this question myself. While my solution is somewhat customized, it may help you develop what you need. The matrix fields that I am trying to hide exist in a two column table that will have a specific override template for that class. To determine whether or not to show something I am using: {section show=$Rows:item.columns.1} {* Show the field's value } {$Rows:Columns:item} {section-else} { Display if field is empty - leave blank to display nothing *} {/section} Hope this helps!

Selmah Maxim	Tuesday 05 August 2003 9:28:56 am I think I found it .. {let RowsNumber=count($content_version.data_map.mydata.content.rows.sequential)} {section show=$RowsNumber\|gt(0)} {show matrix if rows > 0} cc cc {/section} {/let}
Alex Jones	Tuesday 05 August 2003 9:30:20 am Well, as Paul F. would ask, have you tried looking at the attributes for the row? Try something like {$Rows:item\|attribute(show)} after {section name=Columns loop=$Rows:item.columns} to see what is available. I would bet you could use something along the lines of $Rows:item.rows or perhaps just grab the identifier by using $Rows:item.identifier which would output something along the lines of row_2. Please note that the variable names may need to be changed for your code, but that is where viewing the attributes comes in handy. :) Alex Alex [ bald_technologist on the IRC channel (irc.freenode.net): #eZpublish ] <i>When in doubt, clear the cache.</i>
