Hi, newbie here working with webscripts.

I've been working off the samples in Alfresco but I can't seem to find a reference for the expression language on the wiki or anywhere.

For example, I have a modifed version of the folder.get.atom.ftl and I want to do an in-line if to say that if there is no title then display the name otherwise display the name.  So something like;

<title>${child.properties.title ? child.properties.title : child.name}</title>

Where does the reference for the expression language live?

thanks,
aaron

For basic FTL questions you want to use the FTL documentation:
http://freemarker.org/docs/dgui_template_exp.html
http://freemarker.org/docs/dgui_template_directives.html

Remember that you have access to certain root objects and that you can expose other objects to your ftl by adding it to the model
to do so you simply type
model.myVarName = myValue;
