Re: [ic] Bug in "EITHER" coretag

We found what we believe to be a fault in the [either] coretag.

We used the following code on a page:
   [either][cgi idxnum][or]0[/either]
When the cgi value is absent this tag returns nothing -- a null string, rather than the desired '0' character.

The reason for this is that the either coretag splits its body on "[or]" and interpolates each chunk in turn, removes leading and trailing spaces from the result and returns the first "true" result. However in determining what to return, it uses the statement "return $result if $result;" Obviously when $result = '0', this fails to return anything.

Therefore the last statement in the tag should be:

return $result if $result =~ /\S/;
