Re: [Simile-Widgets] Re: Exhibit - How to selectively supress display of content based on value?

[David Karger]

yes, the if selects the first thing that follows; if the if-test fails, the second things is selected. lbjvg wrote: David - Both versions work. Thank you very much. The only caveat is that the scope seems to be whatever immediatly follows <div ex:if="not(contains(.facet1, 'default value'))"> So, I had 2 things that followed: <b>facet50: </b> and <span ex:content=".facet50"></span></div> ; and one would be suppressed but not the other. So I wrapped both in a span and that solved it: <div ex:if="not(contains(.facet1, 'default value'))"><span> <b>facet50: </b><span ex:content=".facet50"></span></span></div> Thanks for your help! - Jim On Nov 19, 2:00 pm, David Huynh <dfhu...@gmail.com> wrote: lbjvg wrote: Hi - I have a database with a lot of default entries.  When I display a lens view, all of the default values clutter and obscure the pertinent values. <div ex:role="viewPanel" style="padding: 1em 0.5in;" id="view_panel"> <div ex:role="lens" style="display: none;" id="lens_view" align="left" <div ex:if-exists=".facet1" class="facet1"><b>facet1: </b><span ex:content=".facet1"></span></div> ... <div ex:if-exists=".facet50" class="facet50"><b>facet50: </b><span ex:content=".facet50"></span></div> So, suppose that most of the items contain a large number of default entries.  I would like to suppress the display of the content if it equals the default value.  As if there were a statement of the form ex:if-notEqual="default value" content=".facet1 Is there such a statement? If the property is unique (each item has exactly one value of that property), then you can try <div ex:if="not(contains(.facet1, 'default value'))"> ... </div> Otherwise, try <div ex:if="exists(remove(.facet1, 'default value'))"> ... </div> David -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.
