1. Select the text, image, page object, or code you want to render if the first condition is true.
2. From the Insert panel’s XSLT category, choose Multiple Conditional Region.
3. When the Multiple Conditional Region dialog box opens, enter the condition to evaluate in
the Test field; click OK when you’re done.
Dreamweaver displays three different tabs: the
<xsl:choose> area surrounds the
<xsl:when>—which holds your previously selected content—and the <xsl:otherwise>
area, which displays the placeholder text
Content goes here, as shown in Figure 32-10.

Dreamweaver displays the content for both outcomes in a Multiple Conditional Region.
If you just want to insert a single condition with a default result, you can stop here.
4. To add additional conditions and results, place your cursor in the placeholder content in
the
<xsl:otherwise> area and choose the <xsl:otherwise> t ...
