Attention

TYPO3 v7 has reached its end-of-life November 30th, 2018 and is not maintained by the community anymore. Looking for a stable version? Use the version switch on the top left.

There is no further ELTS support. It is recommended that you upgrade your project and use a supported version of TYPO3.

page

Property

page, ...

Data type

->PAGE

Description

PAGE is used to define what is to be rendered in the frontend.

Example:

page = PAGE
page.typeNum = 1

Guidelines:

Good, general PAGE object names to use are such as:

  • page for the main page with content

  • top, left, menu, right, bottom, border for top etc.

These are just recommendations. However, especially the name 'page' for the content bearing page is very common.

Pages are referenced by two main values. The "id" and "type".

The "id" points to the uid of the page (or the alias). Thus the page is found.

The "type" is used to define how the page should be rendered.

A good habit is to use "page" as the top-level object name for the content-page on a website.

Most of this code is executed in the PHP script typo3/sysext/frontend/Classes/Page/PageGenerator.php.

PAGE

Property

bodyTag

Data type

<tag>

Description

Body tag on the page

Example:

<body bgcolor="{$bgCol}">

bodyTagCObject

Property

bodyTagCObject

Data type

cObject

Description

This is the default body tag. It is overridden by ".bodyTag", if that is set.

Note: Additionally to the body tag properties noted here, there also is the property "config.disableBodyTag", which - if set - disables body tag generation independently from what might be set here.

bodyTagMargins

Property

bodyTagMargins

Data type

integer

Description

margins in the body tag.

Property:

.useCSS = 1 (boolean) - will set a "BODY {margin: ...}" line in the in-document style declaration - for XHTML compliance.

Example:

Description

Configuration for the page. Any entries made here override the same entries in the top-level object "config".

CSS_inlineStyle

Property

CSS_inlineStyle

Data type

string

Description

This value is just passed on as CSS.

Note: To make TYPO3 actually output these styles as inline CSS (in-document CSS encapsulated in <style> tags), config.inlineStyle2TempFile must be set to 0.

cssInline

Property

cssInline

Data type

->CARRAY

Description

Use cObjects for creating inline CSS

Example:

cssInline {
    10 = TEXT
    10.value = h1 {margin:15px;}

    20 = TEXT
    20.value = h1 span {color: blue;}

    30 = FILE
    30.file = EXT:mysite/Resources/Public/StyleSheets/styles.css
}

extOnReady

Property

Data type

->CARRAY

Description

ExtJS specific, adds inline JavaScript, wrapped in Ext.onReady.

Example:

page.extOnReady {

Ext.onReady(function() {Ext.Msg.alert("TypoScript Message","Hello World!"); });

footerData

Property

footerData

Data type

->CARRAY

Description

Same as headerData above, except that this block gets included at the bottom of the page (just before the closing body tag).

frameSet

FRAME is an object type.

Attention

FRAME, FRAMESET and frameSet have been deprecated in version 8.5 of the TYPO3 core. Using this is no longer considered good practice.

Additionally, frameset and frame are no longer supported in HTML

See Deprecation: #78217 - frameset and frame (8.5 Changelog).

Property

frameSet

Data type

->FRAMESET

Description

if any properties is set to this property, the page is made into a frameset.

headerData

Property

headerData

Data type

->CARRAY

Description

Inserts content in the head section of the website. Could e.g. be Meta tags.

While you can also use this to include stylesheet references or JavaScript, you should better use page.includeCSS and page.includeJS for such files. Features like file concatenation and file compression will not work on files, which are included using headerData.

By default, gets inserted after all the style definitions.

headTag

Property

headTag

Data type

<tag> /stdWrap

Description

Head-tag if alternatives are wanted

Default

<head>

includeCSS.[array]

Property

includeCSS.[array]

Data type

resource

Description

Inserts a stylesheet (just like the .stylesheet property), but allows setting up more than a single stylesheet, because you can enter files in an array.

The file definition must be a valid "resource" data type, otherwise nothing is inserted.

Each file has optional properties:

.allWrap: Wraps the complete tag, useful for conditional comments.

.allWrap.splitChar: Defines an alternative splitting character (default is "|" - the vertical line).

.alternate: If set (boolean) then the rel-attribute will be "alternate stylesheet".

.disableCompression: If config.compressCss is enabled, this disables the compression of this file.

.excludeFromConcatenation: If config.concatenateCss is enabled, this prevents the file from being concatenated.

.external: If set, there is no file existence check. Useful for inclusion of external files.

.forceOnTop: Boolean flag. If set, this file will be added on top of all other files.

.if: Allows to define conditions, which must evaluate to TRUE for the file to be included. If they do not evaluate to TRUE, the file will not be included. Extensive usage might cause huge numbers of temporary files to be created. See ->if for details.

.import: If set (boolean) then the @import way of including a stylesheet is used instead of <link>

.media: Setting the media attribute of the <style> tag.

.title: Setting the title of the <style> tag.

Example:

includeCSS {
  file1 = fileadmin/mystylesheet1.css
  file2 = stylesheet_uploaded_to_template*.css
  file2.title = High contrast
  file2.media = print
  ie6Style = fileadmin/css/style3.css
  ie6Style.allWrap = <!--[if lte IE 7]>|<![endif]-->
  cooliris = http://www.cooliris.com/shared/resources/css/global.css
  cooliris.external = 1
}

includeCSSLibs.[array]

Property

includeCSSLibs.[array]

Data type

resource

Description

Adds CSS library files to head of page.

The file definition must be a valid "resource" data type, otherwise nothing is inserted. This means that remote files cannot be referenced (i.e. using https://...), except by using the ".external" property.

Each file has optional properties:

.allWrap: Wraps the complete tag, useful for conditional comments.

.allWrap.splitChar: Defines an alternative splitting character (default is "|" - the vertical line).

.alternate: If set (boolean) then the rel-attribute will be "alternate stylesheet".

.type: Setting the MIME type of the script (default: text/javascript).

.integrity: (Since TYPO3 7.3) Adds the integrity attribute to the script element to let browsers ensure subresource integrity. Useful in hosting scenarios with resources externalized to CDN's. See SRI for more details. Integrity hashes may be generated using https://srihash.org/.

Example:

includeJS {
  file1 = fileadmin/helloworld.js
  file1.type = application/x-javascript
  # Include a second file, but only if myConstant is set
  # in the TS constants field.
