hide panel based on Array

[sthmpsn1]

I have the following statement that I am using to see if a array holds any value or not and if it doesn't then I want to hide a panel, but right now this isn't working I ave tried both <= and >= and it doesn't work right. any suggestions would be great.

If dependents.length >= 0 then
strPanelName = &quot;depend&quot;
pnlPanel = FindControl( strPanelName )
pnlPanel.Visible = False

End If

um...if you're using >= or <=, then your code will fire no matter how many items are in the array.

that doesn't work

if I have this statement it is running the else part

if dependents.length = 0 then
response.write(&quot;no dependents&quot
else
response.write(&quot;dependents exist&quot
end if

Can I see the code where you have initialized the array as well as any between that initialization and your above code? That'l do donkey, that'l do

You said

if it(the array) doesn't(hold a value) then I want to hide a panel

Consider the following code:
If dependents.length > 0 then
strPanelName = &quot;depend&quot;
pnlPanel = FindControl( strPanelName )
pnlPanel.Visible = False
End If

If dependents.length is greater than 0 (meaning there is an item), then it will hide the panel. Otherwise, it won't.

If this still isn't working for you, then post your array code please as Mark requested
