Core Manual
This document is a Core Manual. Core Manuals address the built in functionality of TYPO3 and are designed to provide the reader with in-depth information. Each Core Manual addresses a particular process or function and how it is implemented within the TYPO3 source code. These may include information on available APIs, specific configuration options, etc.
Core Manuals are written as reference manuals. The reader should rely on the Table of Contents to identify what particular section will best address the task at hand.
This document is a complete reference to all objects and properties of TypoScript as used in TYPO3 templates (and not in TSconfig).
For explanations about the syntax of TypoScript itself, please refer to the "TypoScript Syntax and In-Depth Study" manual.
This version is updated for TYPO3 version 4.6.
The main changes include the integration of the documentation of the content objects MEDIA, SWFOBJECT and QTOBJECT.
The new stdWrap properties "hash", "round" and "replacement" were added. stdWrap has been added to IMAGE.file.params and to all properties of the select object. The "case" property of stdWrap now has the new values "capitalize", "ucfirst" and "lcfirst".
The property config.minifyJS has been replaced by config.compressJs and config.minifyCSS has been replaced by config.compressCss. config.concatenateJsAndCss is now deprecated and has been replaced by two separate properties: config.concatenateJs and config.concatenateCss.
config.includeJSlibs, config.includeJS and config.includeCSS now offer additional subproperties in regards to compression.
The property config.cache, which can influence the cache lifetime of pages, has been appended.
Additionally various descriptions were improved and many smaller mistakes were fixed.

Maintaining quality documentation is hard work and the Documentation Team is always looking for volunteers. If you feel like helping please join the documentation mailing list (typo3.projects.documentation on lists.typo3.org).
All names and references in TypoScript are case sensitive! This is very important to notice. That means that:
myObject = HTML
myObject.value = <strong> HTML - code </strong>
is not the same as
myObject = html
myObject.Value = <strong> HTML - code </strong>
While the first will be recognized as the content-object "HTML" and will produce the desired output, the latter will not be recognized and will not output anything. Even if you wrote "HTML" in uppercase in the second example, it would still not work, because the property "value" is misspelled.
Always remember: In this manual the case of objects is important.
