   Hi,

   I know it's a bit cheeky asking for help with a first post, but I searched and couldn't find an answer to me problem.

   Basically, in single.php I am grabbing a couple of custom fields by the names of 'demo' and 'download', it is being done thusly:

   <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" class="downAlign">
    						 <tr>
       						<td><a href="<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, "demo", true ); ?>" title="Demo"><img src="<?php bloginfo( 'template_directory' ); ?>/images/demo.png" class="none" alt="Demo" /></a></td>
       						<td align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, "demo", true ); ?>" class="postDeets" title="Demo">Demo</a><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="underDeet">See our demo</span></td>
       						<td><a href="<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, "download", true ); ?>" title="Download"><img src="<?php bloginfo( 'template_directory' ); ?>/images/download.png" class="none" alt="Demo" /></a></td>
       						<td align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, "download", true ); ?>" class="postDeets" title="Download">Download</a><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="underDeet">Get the source</span></td>
     						</tr>
   					</table>

   Simple enough. And I know... tables... ugghh... not my choice I can assure you.

   What I would like is that if those custom fields are not in use at all, then the whole table they are contained within does not show at all.

   I cam across this thread

   But it was for displaying the custom field only, and not the surrounding elements too.

   Could someone help me out?

   Nevermind, worked it out myself. Sorry for the fuss :P

   If your interested how:

   <?php
   $demo = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'demo', true);
   if ($demo == '')
   { ?>
   
   <?php } else { ?>
   
                       <div class="containerX"><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" class="downAlign">
    						 <tr>
       						<td><a href="<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, "demo", true ); ?>" title="Demo"><img src="<?php bloginfo( 'template_directory' ); ?>/images/demo.png" class="none" alt="Demo" /></a></td>
       						<td align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, "demo", true ); ?>" class="postDeets" title="Demo">Demo</a><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="underDeet">See our demo</span></td>
       						<td><a href="<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, "download", true ); ?>" title="Download"><img src="<?php bloginfo( 'template_directory' ); ?>/images/download.png" class="none" alt="Demo" /></a></td>
       						<td align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, "download", true ); ?>" class="postDeets" title="Download">Download</a><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="underDeet">Get the source</span></td>
     						</tr>
   					</table></div>
   <?php } ?>
