how to check option condition in email template script

[Kumar_27]

Hi team,

I have to check if the option value is 0 my email template prints "Hi" and if the option value is 1 it prints "Bye". this scenario I want to be achieve in an email template not using a Personalization block.

My code below:

<%
var A = "<%@ include option='test' %>

if (A == '0')
{

<p><b><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 16px;">hi</span></b></p>

}
else
{
<p><b><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 16px;">bye</span></b></p>
}

%>

error:

01/18/2024 3:00:53 AM Failed Unreachable xxx Error while compiling script 'content htmlContent' line 8: illegal XML character (line='var A = <%@ include option='test' %>;\ ' token='%@ include option='test' %>;\ ').

Hi @Kumar_27 

Could you try defining the variables [var A = <%@ include option='test' %>]under the script tag <script> ..... </script>  in your HTML code and use the below code in your body tag.

<%
if (A == '0')
{
%>
<p><b><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 16px;">hi</span></b></p>
<%
}
else
{ %>
<p><b><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 16px;">bye</span></b></p>
<%
}
%>

Thanks,

Akshay

Hi @Kumar_27 ,

Please try by adding the below code in the Script Tab of your Reccuring Delivery 

var test="";

if(getOption("yourOptionName") == 0)
{
test=0;
}

logInfo("test var value"+test)

and in your Reccuring delivery , Please use the below code snippet

<% if(test = '0' ) { %><p><b><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 16px;">hi</span></b></p><% }
else { %><p><b><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 16px;">bye</span></b></p><% } %>
