Please don't invent new syntax (you're mixing Python and TALES 
expressions). First 'global' variable definitions
are usually not needed and considered bad. Use nested scopes instead (as we
all do). Second, a tal:condition="request/target | nothing" allows you to
to call the block only if target is present within the request. Third you 
might use getattr(request, 'target', 'default_target') in order to call 
myscript() with a reasonable default value as needed or use something like 
this:

< meta tal:define="t request/target | string:default_target;
                   target python: context.myscript(t);
                   " />
