Here we learn how to write if else statement in JavaScript, if-else also known as conditional statement, is one of the very common statement in all programming language, but everywhere there are some difference in syntax.
If else statement can be written in different ways while writing any JavaScript function.
Here are some JavaScript if-else examples.
So anything you write any condition, has to return a Boolean value, for example, you can write something like x==10
or x<=10
or x>= 10
, you also can compare any string value, like country==”India”
etc.
if(condition) { // action code }
if(condition) { // action code 1 } else { // action code 2 }
if(condition 1) { // action code 1 } else if (condition 2) { // action code 2 }
if(condition) { // nested if else if(condition) { } else { } }
Here we learn JavaScript if else syntax with some example.
so we create a form where we receive user input, if user type India then we display a message saying “You are Indian” else will display “Not sure, if you are Indian!”
Here is the code.
Remember that JavaScript is always case sensitive, so before you compare you should convert the input into either toLowerCase() or toUpperCase()
<script> function checkInput() { var _input = document.getElementById("txtInput").value; if (_input != "" || _input != null) { var _formatedInput = _input.toLowerCase(); if (_formatedInput == "india") { alert("You are Indian."); } else { alert("Not sure, if you are India!"); } } } </script>
Additionally you can also make sure if there is no space in the input string, using trim function you can remove space from both sides.
<script> var _input = "Hello World "; var _inputTrimed = _input.trim(); </script>
