Hi

Have you tried to debug with writting out the actual values of your variables?

Try this:

{*Get total Count of Study Materials*}
{*Get total Count of Articles*}
{let totalResources=fetch('content','list_count', hash('parent_node_id',$node.node_id,'class_filter_array',array(17),'class_filter_type','include'))

totalArticles=fetch('content','list_count', hash('parent_node_id',$node.node_id,'class_filter_array',array(2),'class_filter_type','include'))

}

Debug: totRes: {$totalResources}
Debug totArt: {$totalArticles}

{section show=gt($totalResources,0)}
<table><tr><td>Message 1 </td></tr></table>
{/section}

{section show=gt($totalArticles,0)}
<table><tr><td>Message 2 </td></tr></table>
{/section}

{/let}

then just insert this?

{section show=or(gt($totalResources,0),gs($totalArticles,0))}
Common stuff
{/section}

Or alternatively if objective to minimize conditional branches

{section show=gt($totalResources,0)}
Write common stuff
<table><tr><td>Message 1 </td></tr></table>
{/section}

{section show=gt($totalArticles,0)}
Write common stuff
<table><tr><td>Message 2 </td></tr></table>
{/section}

But you should print out your values to check that they are ok.

cheers
