If/Then "Link to Next/Previous"
Is there a way to set up a variant of the <txp:link_to_next> tag so that I have text before or after it (“Next Article:”)? I tried adding a label to no effect, and I can’t have text outside the tag because it sits alone on the most recent piece from each section.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Re: If/Then "Link to Next/Previous"
If I understand your question correctly, you should be using txp:link_to_next as a container tag. This should allow you to do as you describe?

This is what I have right now:
<p><txp:link_to_next ><txp:next_title /></txp:link_to_next></p>
I tried putting a label on next_title to no avail.

<p><txp:link_to_next >Next Title :<txp:next_title /></txp:link_to_next></p>
?
It should treat the entire enclosed statement as a single thing.

It does – but the text “Next Article:” is now part of the link. I’d prefer it just be text.

Re: If/Then "Link to Next/Previous"
Hmm… catch22 there I think. The pagination tags that you are using are the only ones sensitive to which article you are on that I know of.
On second thought, you might look at if_first_article , I wouldn’t rule it out altogether.
Try <p><txp:if_first_article>Next Title :</txp:if_first_article><txp:link_to_next ><txp:next_title /></txp:link_to_next></p>
or rather :( <p><txp:if_first_article><txp:else />Next Title :</txp:if_first_article><txp:link_to_next ><txp:next_title /></txp:link_to_next></p>
