 Condition for including a chart on the View page

Hi,
I am looking to include a number of pie charts on the view page of an item. However for some items there will be no data for one or more of the pie charts meaning that I do not want the chart(s) displayed. I also do not want a large blank box where that chart should be, I just want the next element in the page displayed neatly. How would I go about doing this? Would it be some code in the "before process" event?
Thanks

If you switch to HTMl mode on chart page you will see the block similar to this one that is responsible for chart display:

{BEGIN chart_block}

<DIV id="chart_block{$id}">

{$Balance_Chart_chart 700 530}

</DIV>

{END chart_block}


If you do not this or any other chart to be displayed use the following code in BeforeProcess event:

$xt->assign("chart_block",false);


This, of course, can be changed to be conditional.
If you copy/paste more charts to this page make sure to enclose them into similar BEGIN/END blocks so you can also hide them conditionally.
