Type the Value or values (each on a new line) that should be used for the conditional
check. Values are case sensitive. Dates should be entered in ISO standard notation
(yyyy-mm-dd).
The selected action will be performed if the condition evaluates to true with one of the
given values. 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
If you need more complex conditions, click Expand and edit the code of the script.
See "Writing your own scripts" on page260.

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 Content 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 page249
for further explanation on selectors.
