6.
Click the downward pointing arrow next to Condition to expand the list of conditions with
which the data field can be evaluated. The options are: Equal to, Not equal to,
Contains, Does not contain, Begins with, Ends with.
7.
Type the Value that should be used for the conditional check.
For example, you could check whether the data field Gender is 'Equal To' the value 'M', in
order to show a paragraph or an image applying to male customers only.
If the condition evaluates to true, the selected action will be performed. If, conversely, the
condition evaluates to false, and the option Toggle Visibility is checked, the opposite
action will be performed. By default, this option is checked.
Note
To combine the values of two or more data fields, you have to click Expand and
edit the code of the script. See "Writing your own scripts" on page240.

Click Apply or OK.

To see the result, toggle to the Preview tab at the bottom of the workspace (or select View
> Preview View on the menu).
Showing or hiding several elements with one conditional script
To apply one conditional content script to several elements, you have to use a CSS class or
HTMLelement as the selector of the script. When using a CSSclass, apply that class to the
elements in question:
1.
Double-click the conditional script in the Scripts pane to reopen it, or create a new
conditional content script and follow the actions described in "Showing or hiding
elements using the Conditional Script Wizard" on the previous page.
2. Change the selector to a CSS class (for example, .male) or to an HTML element with a
certain CSS class (for example, p.male). See "Using the Text Script Wizard" on page230
for further explanation on selectors.
3. Apply the same CSS class to all elements that should be shown or hidden under the
condition that you have set in the conditional script. Click each element and type the class
(without the preceding dot) in the Class field.
