Hello, i have the following func:

viewModel.unreadCount = ko.dependentObservable(function() {

    var unreadCount = 0;

    for (var i = 0; i x< xxxxxxxxxxxx.length; i++) {
        if (xxxxxx == false) {
            unreadCount++;
        }
    }
    return unreadCount;
}, viewModel);

When I use this in knockout JS, I can't do a simple if (viewModel.unreadCount()==0), like this:

    <div data-bind="visible: viewModel.unreadCount()==0">

It turns out because when I run:

<p>${ (typeof viewModel.unreadCount) }</p>

I get "function"

Any ideas why that is and how I can get it to return an INT so I can do an if statement?

Thanks
