<patTemplate:sub>

This tag may only appear inside a template of type OddEven or Condition. It marks the beginning of a subtemplate.

Attributes

condition (required)

If the tag is used within an OddEven template, the condition attribute may only be set to Odd or Even.

If it is used within a template of type Condition, you may define any condition you like. The value of the conditionvar you defined in the <patTemplate:tmpl> tag will be compared to the condition you set and if they are the same this subtemplate will be used for output.

There are several predefined conditions:

• __default   is used when no other condition equals the value and empty
• __empty  no value for the condition was set
• __first  the first entry when more than one variable is set
• __last  the last entry when more than one variable is set

Example:

<patTemplate:tmpl name="cond" type="condition" conditionvar="foo">

    <patTemplate:sub condition="0">
        Zero has been supplied!<br />
    </patTemplate:sub>
    <patTemplate:sub condition="bar">
        Bar has been supplied!<br />
    </patTemplate:sub>
    <patTemplate:sub condition="argh">
        The argh was here!<br />
    </patTemplate:sub>
    <patTemplate:sub condition="__default">
