Hi all,
I want to make a list of elements separated from comas from a set of
elements name of a specific type with a specific value. (lets say all "a"
elements whose type value is not "b").

I use an iteration to select all "a" elements and a Choose inside it to
select all those elements whose type value is b and I only print in the
otherwise option.

If I use the delimiter in the iteration I also get a comma for b elements,
though they are not printed.

Is there any option to put a condition in the iteration?

Btw, is there any way to know how many elements and iteration has
collected?

Thanks a lot for your answers

How about this:

<c:iterate select="$yourContextHere/a[not(@type = 'b')]" var="a"
delimiter=", ">
<c:get select="$a"/>
</c:iterate>

The expression in square brackets is an XPath 'predicate'. It is relative
to the step it follows, and filters selected nodes that do not meet
satisfy the expression.

Definitely yes!!
I focused too much in the Jet2 control Tags and did not realize that I
should focus on the XPath expressions.
Thanks a lot!!
