<elseif>

Conditional logic used within <if>. Specifies code to be executed only when the cond attribute of the <if> element evaluates to false and the cond expression of the <elseif> evaluates to true. Each <if> element can contain one or more <elseif> statements.

Attributes

This section describes the attributes you can set for this element.

Name	Data type	Default
cond	CDATA	optional

cond

The cond attribute specifies an ECMA expression which will be evaluated as a Boolean. If the expression evaluates to TRUE, then the statement associated with the <elseif> element is executed.

In the following example, the elseif statement determines whether the caller requested a reservation. If a reservation was requested, control is transferred to the reservations.vxml document:

<if cond="main_menu == ‘delivery’">

    <goto next="identification.vxml" />

    <elseif cond="main_menu == ‘reservations’" />

    <goto next="reservations.vxml" />

</if>
