The first time I read this, I didn't notice the word 'element', and assumed that Jakob's problem was merely because he was applying the conditional tag to the comment text but not to the comment paragraph's trailing paragraph marker - which would have the effect he describes. Is this true, that an element cannot be made conditional? It's inelegant, and I've not tried it, but how about making the comment element an inline? But if your comments are not true comments, but in fact conditional blocks of text that you want to use in some single-source set-up for print vs. on-line, it sounds as if you might need a more comprehensive solution, such as Mif2Go (if it works with structure - not sure), or, as suggested, Sourcerer. -- Steve _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
