Hi all!

I want some text to show only if the body attribute of the article is empty..

I've tried this:

{section show=ne($content_version.data_map.body.content,'')}
<div class="tekst">- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - </div>
{/section}

It gives me the text even if the body is empty ;-(

Xml fields are usually never empty because of xml tags. But there is a specific test you can use for emptiness. See this thread:

This is good to no, as it is not documented in the docs or contributions.
Thanks for this link :-)
