Output something if global returns nothing

OK, so:

$sth = $search_db->select ( { isNew => 'Yes', isValidated => 'Yes' });

if neither conditions are matched how would I output some text so I can then do a <%if no_text%> in the templates.

As it is, there is not output to work with.

Hi,

Bit hard to really get what your trying to do? Is it a global/can you post it?

Cheers

Hi Andy,

I discovered I can do a <%if globlaname.length%> to do something when the globat returns nothing.

This works really great!

Thanks anyways.
