   Hi,
   I have a little notification of how many comments there are on each post.
   

   <small class="comments">
   <?php comments_number('No comments','1 comment','% comments'); ?>
   </small>

   The problem is that I don't want this to show if comments are disabled for a post.
   Is there a function in wp that allows you to determine whether comments are enabled or not?
   Thanks,
   Richard

   I want to be able to get whether comments are disabled or not as a true/false variable to use in php. So I can do something like this:
   

   <?php if(comments_enabled()) { ?>
      <small class="comments">
      <?php comments_number('No comments','1 comment','% comments'); ?>
      </small>
   <?php } ?>

   ...where 'comments_enabled()' returns a boolean value based on whether this particular post has comments enabled.
   But 'comments_enabled' isn't a function. I need something to replace it with that will return the value I'm looking for.

   Thanks.
