if statement with template not working

cspurgeon

I'm not to TeamSite (tossed in and told to make a template) and here's my issue.

I have an if statement that should only fire if a checkbox has been checked. But it seems to fire whether the box has been checked or not. Here's the relevant code (this is all inside iw_perl tags)....


foreach my $feature (iwpt_dcr_list('dcr.report')) {
$includeFlagValue = iwpt_dcr_value('feature.homePageFlag');

if ($includeFlagValue == "Yes") {
print "<!--home page flag triggered -->\n";
print "<!--the value is *" . $includeFlagValue . "*-->";
} else {
print "<!--no home page flag -->\n";
print "<!--the value is *" . $includeFlagValue . "*-->";
}
}



In all cases, the "if" section fires, even though $includeFlagValue isn't always equal to "Yes". Any ideas anyone?

In PERL you don't use == for strings. You use eq for equality and ne for not equal.
