Nice candidate for an FAQ Lex!
There's also the built-in {empty} attribute which would do the same job
(http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/userguide.html#X60).

Hi,
I came across the following today -- and was wondering if that would
be considered a bug and also if there are any workarounds (other than
a post-processing script).
Say, I have the following document:
A quote substitution test
=========================
Here is a text. ``Followed by a quote.''footnote:[Which has a footnote
at
the end.]
The document is using doubled-up single quotes ` and ', relying on
ASCIIDOC to generate the proper typographic quotation marks. Now, what
happens is not quite what I anticipated:
<div id="header">
<h1>A quote substitution test</h1>
</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="preamble">
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>Here is a text.‘`Followed by a
quote.’'<span class="footnote"><br />[Which has a footnote at
the end.]<br /></span></p></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
As you can see, one opening quote and one closing quote are being
replaced and one of each are left untouched. This is caused by the
fact that "footnote:" follows the closing quotes without a space. Of
course, I could put a space after the quotes, but that would then mean
that space is there in the generated output as well.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
One quick one, stick a null attribute reference between the '' and footnote eg
blah
====
:n:
blah ``blah''{n}footnote::[blah]
works for me.
Thats probably the least intrusive option without defining something
in the config file.
Cheers
Lex
