I've done the following:
temp.contactInfo = COA
temp.contactInfo.10 = RECORDS
temp.contactInfo.10.dontCheckPID=1
temp.contactInfo.10.tables=tt_content
temp.contactInfo.10.source=4382
page.10.subparts.rightcolumn.stdWrap.ifEmpty < temp.contactInfo
However, all it displays in the right column is the text "COA". If I
remove "stdWrap.ifEmpty" and assign it directly, I see my content
element... very odd.
