227 227  Also available is **<do_if>**, which completes the enclosed action(s) only if one provided value is non-null or matches another. Directly after a <do_if> node, you can add one or more **<do_elseif>** nodes to perform additional checks only in case the previous conditions were not met. The node **<do_else>** can be used directly after a <do_if> or a <do_elseif>. It is executed only if none of the conditions are met.
