Re: [mv] Inventory compare in search results

[Handytman@aol.com]

Russ,
I had to create a results page on which "sold out" products would display 
differently. With slight modifications the page could simply not display 
anything. (Warning: what I've done may seem quite kludgey...)

[if explicit]
        [condition]
        ('[item-data inventory qty]' < 1);
        [/condition]
        (code for sold-out item)             
        [else]
          (code for in-stock item)
        [/else]
[/if]

Note: I modified my own code so I could display it in a straightforward way. 
If I hacked it enough so that it doesn't work, let me know; I'll try to make 
it right for you.

HTH,
Rob Maurer
