Remarks: JScript @if Statement

When writing an @if statement, its clauses do not have to appear on separate lines. In addition, you may use multiple @elif clauses. If you do, all must come before an @else clause.

You commonly use the @if statement to determine which text among several options should be used for text output. For example:

alert(@if (@_win32) "using Windows NT or Windows 95"

@else "using Windows 3.1" @end)
