[TYPO3] Unique wrap based on menuitem pid

[James Corell]

I'm beginning to think that TYPO3 doesn't have the capability to make
exceptions for individual menuitems. This is a serious downside to TYPO3.

I've tried [if] [else] statements, which only work on global data, not the
menuitem data.
I've tried stdWrap.if statements, which work, but don't provide "else"
capability.

Somebody please tell me I don't have to create a user-written handler
(PHP/Javascript) of some kind to specify unique menuitem behavior for
individual links?

I did some more experimental work with this, and discovered two things:

1) wrapItemAndSub doesn't seem to allow .if statements
2) equals.field = uid doesn't work

I'm using "wrap" now, but any ideas on what other equality statements I
could use to test the uid of the current menuitem?

uid - you could use phpMyAdmin to look field names
