For example, we have a list of employees, some of whom have e-mails. Those names should be displayed as a link, and the rest – as a plain text. For this, data must contain a flag field with value of true or false.  For example:

<list>
 <employee name="Willis" email="bruce@hollywood.com" hasemail="true"/>
 <employee name="Stallone" />
</list>

 

template:

 

{{#employee}}

 

 {{#hasemail}

   <a href="{{email}}">{{name}}</a><br/>

 {{/hasemail}

 

 {{^hasemail}

  {{name}}<br/>

 {{/hasemail}

 

{{/employee}}

 

Result:

Willis
Stallone

Other type of logical section is named section. For example we want to process following XML:

<main>
<section1>
…
</section1>
<section2>
…
</section2>
<section2>
…
</section2>
</main>

 

To apply template only to tags named section2 (and exclude section1) add ? before the section name:

{{#main}}
{{#?section2}}
…
{{/?section2}}
{{/main}}
