Notice that there is no ..else.. in this syntax. You tell the browser to execute some code only if the
specified condition is true.

If...else Statement
Use the if....else statement to execute some code if a condition is true and another code if the
condition is not true.

Syntax

if (condition)
{
code to be executed if condition is true
if} (condition)
else
{{ code to be executed if condition is true }
code to be executed if condition is not true
}
else { code to be executed if condition is not true }
Example <script type="text/javascript">
//If the time is less than 10, you will get a "Good
Example
morning" greeting
<script type="text/javascript">
//If the time is less than 10, you will get a "Good morning" greeting.
.//Otherwise
//Otherwise you will get a "Good day" greeting. var d =
you will get a "Good day" greeting.
new Date();
var d = new Date();
vartime
var time = d.getHours();
= d.getHours();

if (time < 10)

if {(time < 10) { document.write("Good morning!"); } else {
document.write("Good morning!");
}
