Re: Help with a FTL if

prasath
sam,
try this.

          <#assign prodDesc =
productContentWrapper.get("LONG_DESCRIPTION")?if_exists>

           <#if prodDesc?if_exists?trim != "">
               ${productContentWrapper.get("LONG_DESCRIPTION")}
           <#else>
               ${productContentWrapper.get("DESCRIPTION")?if_exists}
           </#if>

best wishes
