I think I read that this is possible somewhere, but I can't find it. Anyway, I have a parameterized template. The end result of this template would be a sortable wikitable where each parameter value would create a row. If that value didn't exist I would use the #if parser function to hide that row from the results. My question is this:
What if I don't end up with any values for the parameters thus producing zero table rows? Is there a way to hide the top/bottom of the table and put something in its place such as "No values were given for this article" as text? I just don't want to end up with something like this if there are no table rows due to someone not entered any values:
{|class="wikitable sortable" !Name!!Surname!!Height |}
It would obviously be more user friendly in that instance to just print "No values were given for this article" as stated before. I appreciate any help you can give me on this.
