DTML Basics (part 2) - Paring It Down
( Page 6 of 8 )

In certain situations, you can reduce the amount of code in your DTML Methods by using the "unless" conditional test, which looks like this:

<dtml-unless condition>

	do this!

</dtml-unless>

In this case, the statements in the "unless" block are only executed if the conditional statement evaluates to false. Consider the following rewrite of an earlier example, which demonstrates:

<dtml-unless expr="name != 'neo'">

<font face="Arial" size="-1">

Welcome to the Matrix, Neo.

</font>

</dtml-unless>
