ZK - Open Source Ajax Java Framework

Hi ,

I went thru some docs on ZK5 on if unless..

but wht if i want to compare string in ZUL file how to use if loop?

can anyone help me in this regard..

My scenario below..

<label value="${inputdatalist}" if="${each.name.contains('stringdatainlist')}"/>

the above line is not working for me...

thanks in advance

If memory serves, Expression Language (EL) doesn't support the contains method.  You could try to create your own custom function in a taglib and use it that way but that sure seems like a lot of work.  Maybe someone else here can correct me.

A couple of alternatives come to mind:

    1)  Hook your code up to a controller and iterate through your list, adding the labels at runtime from Java
    2)  Use databinding and a type converter.  
         For example, instead of displaying text you could display a graphic based on the value

Hope that helps,

Todd
