    Conditions

    Hi Having issues with the if/else conditions

    here is what I have re a simple test

    {if [#abc#] != 'FED'}Not FED! {else} ELSE True{/if}
{if [#abc#] = 'FED'} isFED {else} ELSE True {/if}
abc- --[#abc#]--

    and here is what I get in the email

    Not FED!
ELSE True 
abc- --FED--

    so it seems to be doing the reverse of what I expect

    Any ideas of what I am doing wrong or if this is a bug?

    Cheers J

    Hi John,

    I was on holiday for four weeks so I didn't have anytime to respond earlier, but this looks a bit weird indeed.

    One known bug we have is that sometimes when you copy-paste a tag into the richtext editor is that it places span-tags around the tagname. Only if you look into the html of the RTE you will see this.

    So it could be the case that it's not [#abc#] what is being parsed, but:

    [#<span>abc</span>#]

    And that could lead to the above result.

    Maybe you can check this, or maybe you already solved it.

    Hi Jeffrey

    Yep the spans where the problem. they were not around the tag as you suggested but around the if/else brackets - after cleaning up the span tags it now works as expected

    Cheers J
