Hi Dan, I couldn't find anything after a quick browse of the documentation - but I know that for myself, IF Actions and ElseIF Actions do not require an ending Else Action in your TAFs. The reasons why you may want to use the ending Else Action depends entirely on your application and the logic you incorporate. If all the bases are covered - then don't worry about the ending Else Action.
Metatag <@IF> Statements on the other hand have different rules. The following can be used by itself, without an ending </@IF> <@IF EXPR="@@local$Test = 1" TRUE="yes" FALSE="no"> But most every other form of the <@IF> Metatags require the ending </@IF> <@IF EXPR="@@local$Test = 1"> Yes <@ELSE> No </@IF> Forgetting the end </@IF> in a statement like the above, can cause the type of error where hoards of Metatags will suddenly show up in your browser output. Hope this helps. Cheers....
