idea for ya

[wavded]

maybe this implemented but I haven't found it yet, could there be a way to output the value of a variable and have it swallowed up if its null, undefined, NaN and just output nothing instead of those values?

[tj]

I did this for == null so null and undefined should be ok, ex: textarea= user.signature when undefined wont output "undefined" anymore

[wavded]

yeah that works, i mean #{these} statements

[tj]

ah! yeah I may have missed interpolation, I'll check

[tj]

actually im not sure these should be blank, for example you end up with the awkward gaps "

Just a test

Just a test

Just a 0 test

" (might not show well here) , whereas foo= undefined should be blank im not sure hello #{name} should be, you pretty much always want something there

[wavded]

but what if you are outputting a list of things from a database

ul
  li Name:    #{user.accountInfo.firstName + user.accountInfo.lastName}
  li Title:   #{user.accountInfo.title}
  li Company: #{user.accountInfo.company}
  li Address: #{user.accountInfo.address}
  li City:    #{user.accountInfo.city}
  li State:   #{user.accountInfo.state}
  li Zip:     #{user.accountInfo.zip}
  li Phone:   #{user.accountInfo.phone}
  li Fax:     #{user.accountInfo.fax}
  li Email:   #{user.accountInfo.email}

maybe a === against null or undefined?

[tj]

== null will work for those two

yeah that is true

[wavded]

another thought is that the interpolations differ depending on = or #{} are different which may be confusing (were for me)
