omit a div if its null

I have a div that looks like this:

<div id="restinfoinn">
  <div id="resthead">Purpose</div>
  <div id="restcontstitle2"><?php echo $row_pages_here['purpose']; ?></div>
</div>

I want it to be omitted if the value of purpose is empty/null. How can I do this?

This is really basic. You just need to do an IF check on top.

<?php if (!empty($row_pages_here['purpose'])) : ?>
    <div id="restinfoinn">
      <div id="resthead">Purpose</div>
      <div id="restcontstitle2"><?php echo $row_pages_here['purpose']; ?></div>
    </div>
<?php endif;?>

Have a look at alternative control syntax and empty

<div id="restinfoinn">
  <div id="resthead">Purpose</div>
  <div id="restcontstitle2"><?php echo $row_pages_here['purpose']; ?></div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

But i think it would be better to print the empty div and deal with the design in CSS
