Question

There is a Database-table “tt_content” check in my TypoScript code.
Depending on whether the CONTENT is empty or not, I want to set a variable VAR to “empty” or “full”.
Is it possible?

MIDCONTENT= CONTENT
MIDCONTENT{
  table = tt_content
  select.orderBy = sorting
  select.where = colPos = 0  
}

I allready have found a way to set the MIDCONTENT itselfe to empty, by doing

MIDCONTENT= CONTENT
MIDCONTENT{
  table = tt_content
  select.orderBy = sorting
  select.where = colPos = 0  

  stdWrap.ifEmpty.cObject = TEXT
  stdWrap.ifEmpty.cObject.value = empty
}

But what i need, is setting another variable, and i need to check the full state either.

If i unterstand you right, you want to add an class=”full” to ATagParams only if there are tt_content records in that page?

NO.ATagParams.append = TEXT
NO.ATagParams.append {
  value = class="full"
  # Space before and after
  noTrimWrap = | | |
  if.isTrue.numRows {
    table = tt_content
    select {
      where = colPos = 0 
      # the uid of the page, is the pid of the tt_content elements
      pidInList.field = uid
    }
  }
}

If there are no records on that page, numRows will return 0, so if.isTrue will returns false and the TEXT object will not be rendered.
