This has never come up before and I know it's probably a stupid question, but I am trying to write an IF statement where I need to compare characters rather then numbers. I went through the manual and I am a bit confused. I thought that if you used single quotes, it would look at the expression as a character compare rather then a numeric compare. For example...
<@IF EXPR="'00000 = '0'" TRUE ="They really are not the same - one has a lot more zeros then the other" FALSE="They are the same"> I have a client who has numeric codes that can start with multiple zeros and I need to be able to get a true or false depending on the actual characters rather then the numeric value. 00000 = 0 would then be false. Probably a stupid fix, I just cannot see it. By the way, the <@IFEQUAL> tag evaluates the same way. I need a string comparison rather the numeric. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
