Hi,
I just purchased the dev version today and have begun editing my templates. I'm having a difficult time wioth one variable, and hope someone knows the answer:

I'm setting the value of the price using a hidden input on the page where a new ad is entered. When the list of ads in that category are displayed, degug shows the value of this variable as:

price => $2.00

I'm then testing for the value of this variable in the showlistings.tpl.php template. I've tried several ways:

{if $entry.price == "$2.00"}
{if $entry.price == $2.00}
{if $entry.price == "2.00"}
{if $entry.price == "2"}
{if $entry.price == 2}

But none of these work. I'm sure it's the way I have the above IF statement written -- what am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

For some reason the dollar sign throws off smarty. You can try removing it in the comparison using replace, something like this.

{if $entry.price|replace:'$':'' == "2.00"}

That worked Larry, thanks!

I believe there is a slash in there and that is why the check isn't working:

/$2.00

I think there is a thread where another member found this one. Just in case you want to compare it as is.
