Hi Ralf
Thanks for the reply. Three quick follow-up questions though:
1. Why does <cms:ifNotEmpty /> behave differently than <cms:out />?
2. The description for "actpage" is missing in the taglib reference
(http://magnolia.sourceforge.net/30/magnolia-taglib-cms/
tagreference.html#ifNotEmpty). What does it do exactly?
3. If I add actpage="true" it will work for displaying attributes of
the current page. I'm affraid though that it will not work anymore
when I use the same template to display attributes of a list of pages
that I iterate over (<cms:contentNodeIterator items="$
{myPageList}">...</cms:contentNodeIterator). <cms:out /> does work in
both cases!
One possible solution would be:
<cms:out nodeDataName="myAttributeName" var="test" />
<c:if test="not empty test">
Here's my value: <cms:out="myAttributeName" />
</c:if>
This should work in both cases... but it's a bit of a hack, wouldn't
you agree?
Regards,
Will

Will,
Add actpage="true" to the tag and it works...
<cms:ifNotEmpty nodeDataName="my_page_attribute_name" actpage="true">
Content of "my_page_attribute":
<cms:out nodeDataName="my_page_attribute_name" />
</cms:ifNotEmpty>

Betreff: [magnolia-user] <cms:ifNotEmpty> on page properties
Dear Magnolians
I would like to output some content that the user sets in the page
properties (like the page title and so on), but only, if it's not
empty. Strange enough if I test for
<cms:ifNotEmpty nodeDataName="my_page_attribute_name">
Content of "my_page_attribute": <cms:out
nodeDataName="my_page_attribute_name" />
</cms:ifNotEmpty>
I never get anything. Although if I use <cms:out
nodeDataName="my_page_attribute_name" /> alone, it clearly shows,
that the node is not empty. Of course I could now do this:
<c:if test="${not empty pageProperties.my_page_attribute_name">
Content of "my_page_attribute": <cms:out
nodeDataName="my_page_attribute_name" />
</c:if>
But this does not work for me either because I would like to use the
same jsp template on a page (displaying the page properties) _and_ in
a paragraph looping over multiple pages - so I cannot use
"pageProperties".
Is there a bug in <cms:ifNotEmpty /> or am I using it wrong?
Thanks!
Regards,
Will
