["Renat Zubairov (JIRA)" <de...@tapestry.apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-2509?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12612381#action_12612381 ] 

Renat Zubairov commented on TAPESTRY-2509:
------------------------------------------

Will the following case also work?

<t:if test="stuff" else="message:nothing-to-display">
${stuff}
</t:if>

>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: tapestry-core

>            Priority: Minor

> Having a String to Block coercion would allow the following to be equivalent (excluding minor whitespace issues):
> <t:if test="stuff">
>     ${stuff}
>    <t:parameter name="else">No stuff to display.
> </t:if>
> -and-
> <t:if test="stuff" else="No stuff to display">
>   ${stuff}
> </t:if>
> This could also be implemented as String -> Renderable and Renderable -> Block; this would allow (for example) a lone component to be passed to a component parameter of type Block.
