Nested if/else in skin templates

[ellawella]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I do believe the skin templates do not yet support nested if/else statements.

Eg:

<if=something>

<div class="something">Show something</div>

<if=something else>

<div class="somethingelse">Show something else</div>

</if>

</if>

It would be nice to see this in IPB 2.2 or 3.0

It'll be in 3.0 according to: http://blog.mattmecham.com/archives/2005/1...ved_html_l.html

Oh, then I guess this topic can be closed :)

You know, honestly, if/else nesting is not a hard thing to do at all. I've done it in my template system easily. I personally dont see why it's not added, and how they prevent nesting... A simple preg_replace does wonders....

If im not mistaken the only reason why it isnt supported is because you get an error when you try to nest so it doesnt actually do it.... And I think it's because when there's a space behind EOF it causes a php error... But with a little determination, it's not hard to make work.
