looks right to me? just wokring on the same thing myself kinda...

if (@n.HasValue("staffImage")){<div><img src="@n.GetProperty("staffImage")" alt="@n.GetProperty("staffName")" Title="@n.GetProperty("staffName")" width="200" class="staffImage" /></div>}

Hi Stephen,

So what happens if the Value of "staffImage" is empty ? does it still displays the <div> ?

Btw are you using the build in multiText String in v4.9.1 ?

I've found that some times you think it's an empty string, but actaully it's returning a DynamicNull

try writing out GetType() to see what you are actually getting..

then you might need to do a  X.GetType() = typeOf("DynamicNull") as the check...

also 4.11 think you can do  x.GetPropertyValue<string>("someprob")  to stong type... haven't gone that root wet as still working against 4.10

Hey Fuji,

If the value is empty is displays nothing, no DIV and no Image. I am running 4.11.1 but I am using a single line text string.

As Mike mentioned there is a chance the multiline text will put in characters even when its empty...hope this helps

I have the same problem with uComponents Multiple Textstring, although it is empty:

<coPromotor><![CDATA[]]></coPromotor>

          <externalCoPromotor>

            <values />

          </externalCoPromotor>

my code still passes this condition:

if (Model.Content.HasValue("externalCoPromotor") && Model.Content.GetMultipleTextStrings("externalCoPromotor").Count() > 0)

                    {

                        foreach (var excopromotor in Model.Content.GetMultipleTextStrings("externalCoPromotor"))

                        {

                                    @excopromotor @:,&nbsp;

                         }

                    }

Does anyone have an idea to check for an empty property of type Multiple Textstring ?

thanks for your help,

Anthony

it even passes this condition:

if (Model.Content.HasValue("externalCoPromotor") && Model.Content.GetProperty("externalCoPromotor").Value != String.Empty && Model.Content.GetMultipleTextStrings("externalCoPromotor").Count() > 0)

                    {

Hi Anthony,

You could do something else like having boolean checkbox to enable user admin to display the content of the multiple textstring.

Or make the count after

@if(CurrentModel.HasValue("externalCoPromotor") && CurrentModel.GetProperty("externalCoPromotor").Value != String.Empty){
                           if(Model.externalCoPromotor.Count() > 0){
 foreach(var f in Model.externalCoPromotor){                                      
                                        @f.InnerText
                                     
                                   }
}
}

Hi Fuji,

Thanks, this works:

if (Model.Content.GetMultipleTextStrings("externalCoPromotor").Count() > 0){

                        foreach (var excopromotor in Model.Content.GetMultipleTextStrings("externalCoPromotor"))

                        {

                                    @excopromotor @:,&nbsp;

                            }

                        }  

Great :)
