Conditional Content Script. The Conditional Content Script wizard opens.
2. Rename the script so that it reflects what the script does.
3.
If you have started creating the script from the Scripts pane, you have to type a Selector.
The selector selects one or more pieces of text or elements from the template, so that the
conditional content script can hide or show those pieces. An ID (for example:
#conditional-script) is best if you want to show or hide one element only. Use a class
selector (for example: .conditional) if the script should show or hide more than one
element. See "Using the Text Script Wizard" on page607 for further explanation on
selectors.
If you have started the Conditional Script Wizard by right-clicking an element, you don't
have to set a selector. If the element didn't have an ID, a new ID has been generated
automatically. The new ID functions as the selector of the script.
You can change the selector after closing and reopening the script (double-click the
name of the script in the Scripts pane).
4.
Set the Action: use the drop-down to select whether to Show or Hide the element when
the condition below is true.
5.
Click the downward pointing arrow next to Field, to select the data field that should be
evaluated.
6.
Click the downward pointing arrow next to Condition to expand the list of conditions with
which the data field can be evaluated. The options are: Equal to, Not equal to,
Contains, Does not contain, Begins with, Ends with.
7.
Type the Value or values (each on a new line) that should be used for the conditional
check. Values are case sensitive. Dates should be entered in ISO standard notation
(yyyy-mm-dd).
The selected action will be performed if the condition evaluates to true with one of the
given values. If, conversely, the condition evaluates to false, and the option Toggle
Visibility is checked, the opposite action will be performed. By default, this option is
checked.
Note
If you need more complex conditions, click Expand and edit the code of the script.
See "Writing your own scripts" on page624.
