The Multiple If condition in template code

You can define template expressions for if and multiple-if conditions (see Template expressions). This example demonstrates defining a parameter named "Dept", setting an initial value, and defining a Multiple If condition which determines which logo to display.

The following is an example of the code you might enter in the head section of the template:

<!-- TemplateParam name="Dept" type="number" value="1" -->

The following condition statement checks the value assigned to the Dept parameter. When the condition is true or matches, the appropriate image is displayed.

<!-- TemplateBeginMultipleIf -->
<!-- checks value of Dept and shows appropriate image-->


<!-- TemplateBeginClause cond="Dept == 1" --> <img src=".../sales.gif"> <!-- TemplateEndIfClause -->
<!-- TemplateBeginIfClause cond="Dept == 2" --> <img src=".../support.gif"> <!-- TemplateEndIfClause-->
<!-- TemplateBeginIfClause cond="Dept == 3" --> <img src=".../hr.gif"> <!-- TemplateEndIfClause -->
<!-- TemplateBeginIfClause cond="Dept != 3" --> <img src=".../spacer.gif"> <!-- TemplateEndIfClause -->

<!-- TemplateEndMultipleIf -->

When you create a template-based document, the template parameters are automatically passed to it. The template user determines which image to display (see Modifying template properties).
