Need help on iw_ifcase

Hi,
I am trying to use iw_ifcase as follows:

<iw_ifcase name='dcr.code'>
<iw_case value='code1'><title>Development </title></iw_case>
<iw_case value='code2'><title>Qa</title></iw_case>
<iw_case value='code3'><title>Prod</title></iw_case>
</iw_ifcase>
All that code in within CDATA. When I preview, I can see Title in browser is only Development. Even though, my dct value is code2/code3.
Can any one suggest me, if I am using the tag in wrong way. I also don't like to use title again and again, Wanted to store that in var and use that var in title tag. If any one is done like this, pls reply me ASAP.

Cheers,

Are you using 5.5.2? No need for the cdata if so.

So you have an item in your dcr called "code", correct? That item can ONLY have the values "code1", "code2" or "code3". If it contains anything else (case sensitive for arg sake), the case fails. Hopefully a required dropdown. If all this is true, then your case statement is fine. You could pull the title tags out so you don't repeat them. I also added a defualt case in the event none of the matches are met. Otherwise it seems valid. Lots-o-documentation

Hi Matt,
You guessed correct every thing. I used the code which you sent, but, still I can see only first one.
Here is code:
<iw_ifcase name='dcr.code'>
<title><iw_case value='code1'>Development </iw_case>
<iw_case value='code2'>Qa</iw_case>
<iw_case value='code3'>Prod</iw_case>
</title>
</iw_ifcase>
Output is <iw_case value='code1'>Delopment
I checked case sensitive and every thing.
Strange thing is only first value with tag, even, I select code2 in dct.

KTR again,
Friends,
Following code worked for me:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<iw_pt name="content">
<![CDATA[
<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>]]><iw_ifcase name="dcr.code"><iw_case value="code1"> Development </iw_case> <iw_case value="code2">QA</iw_case> <iw_case value="code3">Prod</iw_case>
</iw_ifcase>

can I see the DCT that is used with this?
The rest of the TPL would be helpful as well.
