[TYPO3-templavoila] Limitation of allowed characters in Typoscript inside a DS

[Christian Vetter]

Hi,
Why do you put so much TS into your DS - you'd be better of putting the  
code into a TS object, like this:
<field_tabbar type="array">
    <tx_templavoila type="array">
      <title>Buttons</title>
      <sample_data type="array">
        <numIndex index="0"></numIndex>
      </sample_data>
      <eType>TypoScriptObject</eType>
      <TypoScriptObjectPath>lib.tabbar</TypoScriptObjectPath>
    </tx_templavoila>
</field_tabbar>

In a TStemplate (which you must include, of course) you'd have this:
lib.tabbar = COA
lib.tabbar {
   wrap = <ul id="tabbar">|</ul>
   10 = RECORDS
   10 {
     wrap = <li><a>|</li></>
     source.field = field_tabone
     tables = tt_content
     conf.tt_content = TEXT
     conf.tt_content.field = header
   }
   20 < .10
   20.source.field = field_tabtwo
   30 < .10
   30.source.field = field_tabthree
}

Thereby everything's cleaner and less cumbersome(you need not edit the DS  
everytime you have to manipulate your TS), plus you can easily reuse your  
code - I'm employing this methods for all but the most basic TS (e.g.  
simply putting images onto the page).

Best regards,
	Christian
