I have lots of code that looks like this:=5Bif (condition1)=5D=5Bthen=5Ddo stuff 1=5B/then=5D=5Belse=5D=5Bif (condition2)=5D=5Bthen=5Ddo stuff 2=5B/then=5D=5Belse=5D=5Bif (condition3)=5D=5Bthen=5Ddo stuff 3=5B/then=5D=5Belse=5Ddo default stuff=5B/else=5D=5B/if=5D=5B/else=5D=5B/if=5D=5B/else=5D=5B/if=5DThis would be much nicer if I could write:=5Bif (condition1)=5D=5Bthen=5Ddo stuff 1=5B/then=5D=5Belseif (condition2)=5Ddo stuff 2=5B/elseif=5D=5Belseif (condition3)=5Ddo stuff 3=5B/elseif=5D=5Belse=5Ddo default stuff=5B/else=5D=5B/if=5DThis could similarly be addressed with an alternative form of switch/case=. One possibility would be if no parameters are in the =5Bswitch=5D tag, =then =5Bif=5D-style comparisons could be put into each =5Bcase=5D tag:=5Bswitch=5D=5Bcase (condition1)=5Ddo stuff 1=5B/case=5D=5Bcase (condition2)=5Ddo stuff 2=5B/case=5D=5Bcase (condition3)=5Ddo stuff 3=5B/case=5D=5Bdefault=5Ddo default stuff=5B/default=5D=5B/switch=5D=E2=80=94 Brian =46riesOn January 15, 2015 at 9:34:47 AM, Psi Prime Inc, Matthew A Perosi (matt=40=psiprime.com) wrote:There have been plenty of time when I needed a =5Bdo=5D/=5Bwhile=5D or a ==20=5Brepeat=5D/=5Buntil=5D statement. =20The =5Bremovehtml=5D needs to be improved to recognize the new format for= =20HTML.
