Hide fields in a single record

Hello all.
I have a page that contains a read-only form. The form shows a single
record (i.e. inventory item) in 2 columns: field name on the left, and
field value on the right. I want to hide the entire field (name and value)
if the value is NULL or blank in the table.

Shouldn't I be able to do this using BeforeShowRow? Somehow it is not
working for me. Im using PHP4 + Templates.

Thanks....

It might be easier to filter the records by adding parameters to the where
clause to select where the values or not null.

Don--
I'm trying to display a single row (read-only), so adding filters in the
where clause won't help. Here is what I'm doing (simplified).....

HTML:

....


<TR>
<TD>Height</TD>
<TD>{height}</TD>
</TR>

..more begin/ends here...



CODE: (Notice the case: "H" vs "h")
In the A_BeforeShow() method...
if (strlen($A->height->GetText()) < 1){
$A->Height->Visible = False;
}

Hope this helps...
Chris

The event should be BeforeShowRow (see below).
