Hey there,

I cannot help you on the line "[if styles.content.getBorder not
Empty]" maybe somebody can.

However, as you seem to know , they are no real if statement as
typoscrip isnt a programation langage.

the way to do this is setting 

page.20 = RECORDS
page.20.tables = tt_content
page.20.source = 1234

and after...
[your condition]   
(all the parameters after this line to the end of the file will be set
if your condifiton is true)
 page.20 < styles.content.getBorder

as you can see this can be quite tricky for multi conditions...

I think the best way to get trough would be to create a separate
template file and do the conditon here, then link the template and do
the

subparts.your_border < the element from your seperate template

Maybe somebody can suggest a better way of doing it?

good luck

Philippe
