Flash/Actionscript Basics: If – Then – Else Statement Syntax
Posted May 28, 2006 by David Kirk in Computer programming

Creating a basic if – then statement in flash or actionscript is easy. Here is the correct syntax.
The basic syntax is the following:
if (condition)
{
statement(s);
}
Here is an actual working example. If the variable userInput contains data, the value will be sent to the trace command.
if (userInput != undefined)
{
trace("Input is " + userInput);
}
Adding an else section is not much harder:
if (userInput != undefined)
{
trace("Input is " + userInput);
}
else
{
trace("Input is unknown" );
}
