Yes, this is a problem. I recommend you report it at ErrorLog, just to make sure it gets on the radar of the dev team at some point. I know they've already heard about this for wikia wikis, but would be good to remind them that it's a larger problem. peace, TedErnst | talk 15:07, 22 October 2007 (PDT)

Seems like your example works now, yes? midnr.startspot.nl -- TedErnst | talk 06:23, 25 October 2007 (PDT)

Yep, it does! I must say the developers at AboutUs are very quick and skilled!

Vartan, please wait until I'm finished. Thanks! TedErnst | talk 16:17, 25 October 2007 (PDT)

Sorry about that!

I'm done now. Sorry for reverting you. That was frustrating, is all. I think your way is actually better, so please go ahead and change it, if you like. peace, TedErnst | talk 16:22, 25 October 2007 (PDT)

What's #if do? TedErnst | talk 16:24, 25 October 2007 (PDT)

Usage: {{#if:|Variable to check|If true|If false}}

#if checks if variable specified is not null or empty. (True for not empty)

I'm not quite getting what you did here. How is this different than what I did? TedErnst | talk 16:30, 25 October 2007 (PDT)

A bit.

In my version if no font was specified, it would be georgia, however, the difference is that if the font was not found on the client's computer, it would resort to georgia (because my code would do arial, georgia instead of arial)

--Vartan 16:32, 25 October 2007 (PDT)
Okay, but why do you need the #if for that? I'm confused. TedErnst | talk 16:37, 25 October 2007 (PDT)

Because I need to check for if the font is specified. If it isn't, I don't want a comma hanging around in front of georgia. :)
