RE: [mapguide-users] Need help with IF-statment in Tool Tip
If the "empty" values are truly null, then check for null instead of checking
the length. E.G
if($featureReader->IsNull('BILLING_ADD')){
$billing_address = " ";
}

Subject: RE: [mapguide-users] Need help with IF-statment in Tool Tip
I cant understand how this If-statement works
I thought the [condition] was integer based. ex Length(BYGGINV_1)>0
But obviously not...
Could someone help explain how this If-statement work or better up how I can
find out whether the atribute contains any text (string) or not!
Ex of how my table looks like:
