validation question

How would I force a text field to have output look like ">>linktext"? I need the ">>" to show up in front of the link text. This can't be hardcoded in the presentation template as it is an optional field.

Thanks,

Try something like this in the Presentation Template:

<iw_if expr=" length({iw_value name='dcr.linktext'/}) &gt; 0 ">
<iw_then>
&gt;&gt;<iw_value name="dcr.linktext" />
</iw_then>
</iw_if>

Depending upon what type of field "linktext" is you may need to check the length > 10 since Visual Formatter (?) inserts paragraph tags into empty textareas.
