Author Checking for empty content in Presentation Templates

2007-01-09, 1:57 am

Hi everyone,

I'm creating an intranet site using WebSphere Portal need to do some WCM validation within my presentation template to check to see whether a content item (in this case Rich Text) has been filled in before printing it out.

E.g. I want to wrap my validation around:

Check that Page Header is not empty
<div id="header">
<Element context="current" type="content" key="Page Header"/>
</div>
End check.

I've searched all morning trying to find a way to do this, and I know there's an "is" function, but no examples on how to use it.

If anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks!

What version of Portal/WCM are you using? In V6.0 you can make the RTE
field required which should do what I think you are looking to do.
