QUESTION Show <div> only when it contains some content

[meetje]

hello,

I'm more or less new to GS (tried it some times before) and I have a question if it's possible to make it so that a <div> in a template only shows up in the FE when it has some content given.
In a CMS that I use atm it's done with php

Code:

ob_start

Thanks for helping!

try to do it with a simple if

PHP Code:

<?php
$content = 'your content or something what You want to show';
if ($content != ''){
echo '<div>'. $content . '</div>';
}
?>

I'll give it a try.

I suggest you use a different name for that variable, e.g. $mycontent instead of $content, if you're going to use it in your template. Otherwise there could be some conflict with GS as it uses a $content variable.

As I'm new to GS I have to dig bit deeper in the script but I'll try ;-)
