The purpose of this dialog box is to write a simple conditional expression to insert into your XSLT page. If content is selected when you open this dialog box, the content will be wrapped in an block. If you do not have content selected, the block will be entered at the insertion point.

This dialog box provides a way to create a simple conditional expression. It is recommended that you use the dialog box to get started and then customize the expression in Code view.

The element is similar to the case statement in other languages. The element provides a way for you to test a condition and take a course of action based on the result. The element allows you to test for multiple conditions.

To insert a multiple conditional region:

1. In the Multiple Conditional Region dialog box, enter the first condition.

   In the following example, you want to test to see if the context node’s price subelement is less than 5.

2. Click OK.

   In the example, the following code is inserted in your XSLT page:

              Content goes here               Content goes here      

3. To insert another condition, place the insertion point in Code view between tag pairs or just before the tag, and then insert a conditional region (Insert > XSLT Objects > Conditional Region).

   After you specify the condition and click OK, Dreamweaver inserts another tag in the block.
