I would like to know how I would say if $item equals $tempitem OR if $item is empty(the variable is a placeholder that has nothing in it), execute command.
Usually "empty" means "undefined", and if that's what you mean, you could check like this:
if ((not defined $item) or ($item eq $tempitem)) {
$command->execute;
