Hi

Try this small snippet:

<xsl:if test="$currentPage/IsValid='1'">
    <!-- Here we can do something if the true/false is checked -->
</xsl:if>

/Kim A

It always returns true no mater check for '1' or '0'.

Thanks.

It works

<xsl:if test="not(isValid='1')"> 

  do your stuff here

</xsl:if >

If the value is checked then IsValid returns '1' else NULLis returned.

Hmm.... A true/false property should return either 0 or 1 if you have published the page. Are you checking this inside a loop of some kind? I'm asking because you are not having $currentPage in the code from your recent post.

If you're inside a loop, it would also make sense that $currenPage/IsValid doesn't return 0 or 1.

Could you perhaps share the XML output with us? This behaviour sounds a bit odd to me as well.

What version of Umbraco are you using?

Hi,

I always use the not(propertyName = 1) version - also when checking umbracoNaviHide. It safeguards against the case where the property doesn't even exist on a Document (whether because it hasn't got it, or because it hasn't been published since it got it). 

Kim's point is important - that you need $currentPage if not inside a loop or matching template.

My umbraco version 4.5.2

The reason for why 0 was not displayed was because once a new property is created the content has to be published, which I did not do because I thought the checkbox was to remain unchecked and so I did not bother publishing it ......................my mistake.

I am inside the loop and hence not $currentPage.

Thanks for the so many quick responses. I did learn something new today..........Thanks......guys!

is working on a reply...
