it works:

<dtml-if "var1=='OK' and var2==3 and var3 in ('a',1,'1') and var4 != 'OK'
and var5">

note1: var5 is string, true when <>'' nor None but must exists

note2: var5 is int, true when <>0 nor None but must exists

<dtml-else>
</dtml-if>

Is there any way to check if multiple variables exist in the same if
statement? Right now I am having to writing multiple nested if statements
but can be quite cumbersome... so just looking for an easier way.


Currently I'd have to write:
<dtml-if var1>
<dtml-if var2>
<dtml-if var3>
<dtml-else>
</dtml-if>
<dtml-else>
</dtml-if>
<dtml-else>
</dtml-if>


When it would be easier to do something like:


<dtml-if "var1 and var2 and var3">
<dtml-else>
</dtml-if>

These are required to be set, though.. right?

Doing:
<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('var_one','OK')">
<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('var_two','OK')">

<dtml-if "var_one=='OK' and var_two=='OK'"> Set
<dtml-else> Not Set
</dtml-if>

works but taking away var_two and I get a NameError: name 'var_two' is not
defined. This is what I'm trying to check is if they exist. Not
particularly looking to match them to anything just yet but rather just to
see if they exist. If they throw an error then it's not working.

Yes, use like that

<dtml-unless var1>
<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('var1','')">
</dtml-unless>

Thanks for the response.

I could do that but it isn't really getting rid of the original problem.
Using my original example I'd be turning this:
<dtml-if var1>
<dtml-if var2>
<dtml-if var3>
<dtml-else>
</dtml-if>
<dtml-else>
</dtml-if>
<dtml-else>
</dtml-if>

into:

<dtml-unless var1>
<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('var1','')">
</dtml-unless>
<dtml-unless var2>
<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('var2','')">
</dtml-unless>
<dtml-unless var3>
<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('var3','')">
</dtml-unless>

<dtml-if "var1!='' and var2!='' and var3!=''">
<dtml-else>
</dtml-if>

Thereby increasing the lines of code used, albeit in an initially
"prettier" format when it gets down to the checking of said variables.

I figured if there was an answer for my problem then it'd be an easier
method that I just overlooked. If not then I'll just go with it.
