if-conditions in Twig

Question

I am using Twig to conditionally display a piece of HTML (or trying to, anyway).

What is wrong with this? Everything works okay until I put in the if-endif pair.

{% set numberOfPartners = partners|length %} (% if numberOfPartners > 1 || partners[0].special != 1 %} <div id="headline"> {% trans %} Lorem ipsum dolor {{ numberOfPartners }} <br /> {% endtrans %} </div> {% endif %}

The error I get is

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Twig_Error_Syntax' with message 'Unknown tag name "endif" in ...

I can't find tag trans here: twig.sensiolabs.org/doc/templates.html — user680786

I haven't actually looked at the code or tested it, but is it because you've got (% instead of {% on line 2?

Believe it or not, I have been staring at my code for about half an hour and did not see that. You saved me. I am going to delete this stupid question ;) Maybe it's time I turn my machine of for the day.

Ha, we've all spent hours on that accidentally-capitalized letter or missing semicolon! And I wouldn't delete it... That error message isn't very helpful (should probably say something like "unmatched 'endif' tag"), so someone searching for "Unknown tag name 'endif'" might find their answer here too.
