In the default index.tmpl file, I made the following change:

before:
{TEMPLATE: show_links}

after:
{IF: _uid} {TEMPLATE: show_links} {ENDIF}

The generated code BEFORE the change is as follows:

"index.php?t=selmsg&date=today&<?php echo _rsid; ?>&frm_id=<?php echo (isset($frm->forum_id) ? $frm->forum_id.'' : $frm->id.'' ) .'&th='.$th.'" title="Show all messages that were posted today" rel="nofollow">Today's Messages</a>
'.(_uid ? ':: <a href=" index.php?t=selmsg&unread=1&'._rsid.'&frm_id='.(iss et($frm- >forum_id) ? $frm->forum_id.'' : $frm->id.'' ) .'" title="Show all unread messages" rel="nofollow">Unread Messages</a> ' : ''); ?>
<?php echo (!$th ? ':: <a href=" index.php?t=selmsg&reply_count=0&'._rsid.'&frm_id=' .(isset($frm- >forum_id) ? $frm->forum_id.'' : $frm->id.'' ) .'" title="Show all messages, which have no replies" rel="nofollow">Unanswered Messages</a> ' : ''); ?>
:: <a href="index.php?t=mnav&<?php echo _rsid; ?>" rel="nofollow">Message Navigator</a><?php echo $admin_cp; ?>
<?php echo $cat_path; ?>

The generated code AFTER the change contains syntax error and is as follows:

<?php echo (_uid ? ' Show:
<a href=" index.php?t=selmsg&date=today&'._rsid.'&frm_id='.(i sset($frm- >forum_id) ? $frm->forum_id.'' : $frm->id.'' ) .'&th='.$th.'" title="Show all messages that were posted today" rel="nofollow">Today's Messages</a>
'.(_uid ? ':: <a href=" index.php?t=selmsg&unread=1&'._rsid.'&frm_id='.(iss et($frm- >forum_id) ? $frm->forum_id.'' : $frm->id.'' ) .'" title="Show all unread messages" rel="nofollow">Unread Messages</a> ' : ''); ?>
<?php echo (!$th ? ':: <a href=" index.php?t=selmsg&reply_count=0&'._rsid.'&frm_id=' .(isset($frm- >forum_id) ? $frm->forum_id.'' : $frm->id.'' ) .'" title="Show all messages, which have no replies" rel="nofollow">Unanswered Messages</a> ' : ''); ?>
:: <a href="index.php?t=mnav&<?php echo _rsid; ?>" rel="nofollow">Message Navigator</a> ' : ''); ?>
<?php echo $admin_cp; ?>
<?php echo $cat_path; ?>

Correct the syntax error by removing the trailing ; ?> near "Unanswered Messages" and replace with a dot, and add a
single quote on the next line.

Corrected version:

<?php echo (_uid ? ' Show:
<a href=" index.php?t=selmsg&date=today&'._rsid.'&frm_id='.(i sset($frm- >forum_id) ? $frm->forum_id.'' : $frm->id.'' ) .'&th='.$th.'" title="Show all messages that were posted today" rel="nofollow">Today's Messages</a>
'.(_uid ? ':: <a href=" index.php?t=selmsg&unread=1&'._rsid.'&frm_id='.(iss et($frm- >forum_id) ? $frm->forum_id.'' : $frm->id.'' ) .'" title="Show all unread messages" rel="nofollow">Unread Messages</a> ' : ''); ?>
<?php echo (!$th ? ':: <a href=" index.php?t=selmsg&reply_count=0&'._rsid.'&frm_id=' .(isset($frm- >forum_id) ? $frm->forum_id.'' : $frm->id.'' ) .'" title="Show all messages, which have no replies" rel="nofollow">Unanswered Messages</a> ' : '') .
':: <a href="index.php?t=mnav&<?php echo _rsid; ?>" rel="nofollow">Message Navigator</a> ' : ''); ?>
<?php echo $admin_cp; ?>
<?php echo $cat_path; ?>

I started to look at the code generation routine compiler.inc for a permanent fix but I thought I should ask if there is someone who is more familiar with this code generation routine.

Still no reply from anyone....just wondering if my posting wasn't clear enough.

Has anyone had experience modifying the template code? The findings I posted suggest that (randomly) adding {IF} is not to be taken lightly. I can suggest a code fix to the code generation routine but due to its potentially extensive impact, lots of testing will be required.

Is there a test suite for the code generator?

See http://fudforum.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=9288

"Normally you can end the expression using {end}, but if you don't have an else you need to use {endif}. The {endI} and {endifI} are special terminators you need to use in the place of {end} and {endif} when your conditional expression is within another conditional expression."

I normally play with the various forms of {IF: } until I get one that works:
{IF: ...}...{ELSE}...{END}
{IF: ...}...{ENDIF}

Within another {IF: }
{IF: ...}...{ELSE}...{ENDI}
{IF: ...}...{ENDIFI}

Hi Naudefj,

Thanks for the reply.

I took your advice and tried all the combinations you suggested, but alas the syntax error problem persists. In fact in looking at the code generation routine in compile.inc, aside from a simple white space in the generated code, I really don't see the difference between ENDIF and ENDIFI, nor the difference between END and ENDI.

Straight from .../FUDforum/include/compiler.inc, starting from line 302:

           case 'END':
                $ret .= "' ) .'";
                break;

            case 'ENDI':
                $ret .= "' )  .'";
                break;

            case 'ENDIF':
                $ret .= "' : '' ) .'";
                break;

            case 'ENDIFI':
                $ret .= "' : '' )  .'";
                break;

Any other ideas how to resolve this issue?

Thanks

Dan
