[TYPO3] An exampe of usage of if-statement

[Tapio Markula]

Hi

TS REF has this example

This is a GIFBUILDER object that will write "NEW" on a menu-item if the 
field "newUntil" has a date less than the current date!

...

   30 = TEXT

   30.text = NEW!

   30.offset = 10,10

   30.if {

     value.data = date: U

     isLessThan.field = newUntil

     negate = 1

   }
in
http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/references/doc_core_tsref/current/view/5/7/

Well I tried that for menu states


tt_content.menu.20.5 {
		special {
                         limit = 10000 
                            			maxAge = 360000*24*183
		}

1.NO=0

1.if {
     value.data = date:U
     isLessThan.field = newUntil
     negate = 0

}

1.NO=1
1.alternativeSortingField=newUntil,lastUpdated,tstamp,uid
1.NO.after.cObject < temp.after	
}


The condition doesn't have any effect.
I got some condition to work with TEXT object,
for example

11=TEXT
11{
field=lastUpdated

if{
value = 0
equals.field = lastUpdated
negate=1
}
date=d.m.Y
}

But I don't now figure, what's wrong with menu items
