CFIF CFELSE CFELSEIF  
 
 

Used with CFELSE and CFELSEIF, CFIF lets you create simple and compound conditional statements in CFML. The value in the CFIF tag can be any expression.

 
 
  Syntax  
 
<CFIF expression>
    HTML and CFML tags
<CFELSE>
    HTML and CFML tags
<CFELSEIF expression>
    HTML and CFML tags
</CFIF>

 
 
  Usage  
 

Note that when testing for the return value of any function that returns a Boolean, you do not need to explicitly define the TRUE condition. The following code uses IsArray as an example:

<CFIF IsArray(myarray)>

When successful, IsArray evaluates to YES, the string equivalent of the Boolean TRUE. This method is preferred over explicitly defining the TRUE condition:

<CFIF IsArray(myarray) IS TRUE>
