Hi,
I have a record pulled from a database that contains many fields, dividing groups of these fields is a horizontal rule (this is on the page not in the cms). When their is no content in these fileds I don't want the rule to show, as you end up with a pile of rules at the bottom of the page or a double rule where the particular group of fields content is empty.

Hi zaba,
You can use a PHP if statement to test if the field has any content and only show the html and rule if there is content in the field. Like this:
<?php if ($record['sub_head_three']): ?>
.. show fields and rule here ...
<?php endif ?>
Try adding the if and endif tags around the content you want shown or hidden and change the fieldname in the if to be the field you want to test.
Let me know if that works for you!
