templateExists function

[Prem Kurian Philip]

Hi,

I am trying to use the #templateExists velocity function to determine if a
template exists before calling the #parse function. I am getting errors
when I tried this:

#if (#templateExists("$context/assets/organizations/$id/css/styles.css"))
  #parse("$context/assets/organizations/$id/css/styles.css")
#end

The error message I am receiving is this:

"Was expecting one of: "[" ,   "{" ,   "(" ,   <WHITESPACE> ,  
<STRING_LITERAL> ,   "true" ,   "false" ,   <INTEGER_LITERAL> ,  
<FLOATING_POINT_LITERAL> ,   <IDENTIFIER> ,   "{" ,   <LOGICAL_NOT>"

I would appreciate some information on how to solve this. I also tried
resourceExists with similar results.

I am using Click 1.5.

Thank you,
Prem
