[NTG-context] def with if..else fails in TABLE

17 Oct 2005

      Salute wizards!

I tried to write a macro for a TABLE line:

\def\TestCmd{\dodoubleempty\doTestCmd}
\def\doTestCmd[#1][#2]#3{\bTR\bTD #3
     \iffirstargument\hfill (#1)\fi
     \eTD \bTD
     \ifsecondargument
         3: #2 and #3
     \else
         2: only #3
     \fi
     \eTD\eTR
}

But it never goes into "else" (if #2 is empty, I get "3: and #3")!
And it's only with the table commands around.
Why? What can I do?
