Show- Hide object in portal

[Leb i Sol]

Hi People!

I was just wondering if it is possible to create a script that will show or hide an object in the portal row (eg. image) based on some condition?

eg. records that do not have a field (eg. Date) populated

==============portal======================

record1.........1/2/2002

{ ----NO RECORD IMEGE.jp----------------}

record 3.......1/3/2003

record 4........1/1/2002

==========================================

Thanx for all the comments and advice!

Didn't someone already ask this question this week.

Well, maybe not.

Here is a demo file that may do what you want describe. I haven't tested it because I haven't had a need to do this.

hi Lee!

Thanx for the post....I have actually looked at this file but my goal is a bit different...I wan to 'eliminate'-represent by an image - cover by an image (any perspective u want to take) those records that fit certain criteria(not all field entered); not just the last row....the fact that it is there does not bother me since it is obviosly empty.

Also, ur right I was the one that asked the question that was simmilar to this...but not the same at all when the technique is conecerned.

Bascially, I can not just "sort out" for the records and leave them out of the portal (due to the 1-many relationship) that is why I would like to "cover" them by an image.

Thank you ALL!

oooops

perhaps I posted it wrong...not "hide the object in the portal row" but rather Hide the Entire Row and ALL the objects in it which changes the situation....

thanx_

Yeah, now you are talking about a file called Visible. Also, available at JMO's site.
