I want to display the node name of a specific node, my code is this:

{switch name=Sw1 match=$node.object.section_id}
{case match=6}
{let children=fetch(content,node,hash(node_id,98))}{$children.data_map.name.content|upcase}{/let}
{/case}
{/switch}

I can enter inside the case of the swith but don't show me the node name.

            {$Sw1:children.data_map.name.content|upcase}
         {/let}
    {/case}
{/switch}

With the <i>name</i> attribute in the switch-tag, you open a new namespace. All variables declared inside the namespace must be referenced with the namespace as part of the variable name. The general form is {$namespace:myvariable}, where <i>namespace</i> can consist of several nested namespaces. To reference the current (active) namespace, you can also use {$:myvariable}. (More info: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/development/libraries/ez_template/basics/namespaces)

In your case, it would be: {$Sw1:children.data_map.name.content} or {$:children.data_map.name.content}.

But I would suggest to get rid of the <i>name</i> parameter. It's not needed and makes things more complicated than they should be.

Edit: Lukasz didn't elaborate as much and beat me to it...

Yep, I agree with Hans, this was to fast...

Daniele, more about Namespaces with code example you can find here.
