[TYPO3-english] include TypoScript according to type (tt_news, tt_content)

[Loek Hilgersom]

Hey Robert,

You'll need an extra query to achieve that, unless you'll be able to access the 
data from the news records from some place where it's already been retrieved.
If that's done in TypoScript then you can store the values in a register to 
avoid the extra query.

With the query it will be something like this:

	10 = CASE
	10 {
		//key.data = register:tt_news_type

		key.cObject = RECORDS
		key.cObject {
			tables = tt_news
			dontCheckPid = 1
			source.data = register:tt_news_uid
			conf.tt_news = TEXT
			conf.tt_news.field = type
		}

		default = TEXT
		default.value = DEFAULT
		3 = TEXT
		3.value = THREE
		4 = TEXT
		4.value = FOUR
	}

Is this what you're after?

Hth, and greetings!
Loek
