Hi,

In a custom class I have an attribute of type media that is not required, and displaying objects of this class, I want to test if this attribute (identifier : "son") contains a file or not.

I have tried this :

{section show=$node.data_map.son.content.filename.is_empty|not} 		        
		<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="{'dewplayer.swf'|ezimage('no')}?mp3={$node.data_map.son.content.filepath|ezroot('no')}" width="200" height="18" bgcolor="#cccccc">
				<param name="movie" value="{'dewplayer.swf'|ezimage('no')}?mp3={$node.data_map.son.content.filepath|ezroot('no')}" />
				<param name="bgcolor" value="#cccccc"> 
		</object>{/section}

and this 

{if gt($node.data_map.son.content.filesize,0)} 		        
		<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="{'dewplayer.swf'|ezimage('no')}?mp3={$node.data_map.son.content.filepath|ezroot('no')}" width="200" height="18" bgcolor="#cccccc">
				<param name="movie" value="{'dewplayer.swf'|ezimage('no')}?mp3={$node.data_map.son.content.filepath|ezroot('no')}" />
				<param name="bgcolor" value="#cccccc"> 
		</object>{/if}

But my flash player always appears =(

Hello Sébastien

You can use this:

{if $attribute.content.filename}
{* show the player *}
...
{else}
...
{/if}
