jquery - using "if"'s in jQuery tmpl

Question

Is it possible to create if sentences inside a jQuery tmpl template?

<script id="template" type="text/html">
    <h1>${someVar}</h1>
    if (${intro}!="")
        <small>${intro}</small>
    endif
    <p>${restOfVariables}</p>
</script>

Now, this would only write out the if as text, so is there any way to do something like this? Or would I have to create two different templates and do the check in my js before calling the template?

Answer 1

According to these docs, you can do:

<script id="template" type="text/html">
    <h1>${someVar}</h1>
    {{if intro != ""}}
        <small>${intro}</small>
    {{/if}}
    <p>${restOfVariables}</p>
</script>
