Layout:

Code:

<div id="container">{block "main"}{/block}</div>

View:

Code:

{block "main"}The content{/block}

How to hide div.container when content of block "main" is empty or not passed by view - other than using {capture} in place of {block}?

If I do in layout:

Code:

<div id="container">{block "main" hide}{/block}</div>

div.container will always be displayed.

Thanks.

Full, working code, please. From your description, it leaves much to guess, and i'm not into guesswork.

I'm using Kohana framework.

My master layout:

Code:

<body><div id="container">{block "main"}{/block}</div></body>

My view (View 1) that extends master layout:

Code:

{block "main"}Some content{/block}

My another view (View 2) that also extends master layout, doesn't pass {block "main"}.

What I expect is:

Code:

<body><div id="container">Some content</div></body>

Code:

<body></body>

Seems like you didn't read documentation. http://www.smarty.net/docs/en/language.function.block.tpl {$smarty.block.child}

Master layout:

Code:

<body>{block "main" hide}<div id="container">{$smarty.block.child}</div>{/block}</body>

This is better than mine. Before, I added {if} to check if {$smarty.block.child} is empty. Thanks.
