| IF Statements
The %IF% construct gives TWiki the power to include content in topics based on the value of simple expressions. | |
Note that because of the way TWiki evaluates, then whatever is in the THEN and ELSE parameters will already have been expanded by the time the condition is actually evaluated. The standard FormatTokens can be used in the THEN and ELSE parameters when you need to delay evaluation of (for example) a TWiki variable. | |
< < | The basic syntax of a condition is the same as the syntax used for queries, with the addition of the following special operators: | > > | The basic syntax of a condition is the same as the syntax used for queries, with operators = , != , ~ , < , > , <= , >= , NOT , AND , OR , () , and functions lc() , uc() , d2n() . In addition, the following special operators are supported: | | | |
< < |
context |
True if the current context is set (see below) |
allows |
'X' allows 'Y' is true if web/topic 'X' exists and allows access mode 'Y' for the current user. Web access rights are only checked if there is no topic called 'X'. |
istopic |
istopic 'X' is true if topic 'X' exists |
isweb |
isweb 'X' is true if web 'X' exists |
ingroup |
'X' ingroup 'Y' is true if user 'X' is in group 'Y'. 'X' can be a login name or a wikiname. |
defined |
True if a preference variable or url parameter of this name is defined. |
$ |
expands a URL parameter or TWikiVariable name. Plugin handlers are not called. Built-in variables and user-defined preferences are supported. You can pass a limited subset of parameters to TWiki variables by enclosing the variable name in single quotes; for example, $ 'VARIABLE{value}' . The 'VARIABLE{value}' string may not contain quotes (' or "). |
{X} |
expands to the value of the configuration variable {X} - for example, {ScriptUrlPath} |
| > > |
context |

isweb |
isweb 'X' is true if web 'X' exists |
