definitely not with the if viewHelper, and I don't know any other 
default viewHelper that's capable to do this.

I'd go the way with a custom viewHelper. You could have a look at the 
viewHelper incubator - maybe there's already a suitable one there 
(please search for it on forge or on this list, I don't have the URL at 
hand).
