Defines an IF...THEN...ELSE... conditional statement based on a JavaScript condition.

The IfThenElse statement is one of the HTML transaction conditional statements. It contains two child steps (Then and Else) which are executed depending on the condition fulfillment:

• Then step and child steps are executed when the condition is verified,
• Else step and child steps are executed when the condition is not verified.

The condition, defined in the Condition property, is a JavaScript expression that is evaluated during the transaction execution as true or false.
Note: In Convertigo Studio, when an IfThenElse statement is created in a handler, it can be easily replaced by an If, using the right-click menu on the statement and choosing the option Change to > If. The Condition property remains the same and the statements present in the sub-statements are:

• statements present in the Then statement are moved to the If,
• statements present in the Else statement are deleted.
