What's wrong with this code?

<% if InSection(administrative-news) %>
administrative-news
<% else_if InSection(image-galleries) %>
image-galleries
<% else %>
... alternative content ...
<% end_if %>

When the first conditional is true, this is what prints to the browser:
"administrative-news <% else_if InSection(image-galleries) %> image-galleries"

When the second conditional is true, this is what prints to the browser:
"... alternative content ..."

It's like the "else_if" clause is being interpreted as a string(!) What am I doing wrong?

I believe you have to nest your if's as they don't work multi level (if, else if, else if, else) like php, only support 1 level (if, else) in templates..

ie i have done this as part of a product template and it works ok, bit of a hack but it works..

<% if Level(5) %>
	<!-- 5: PRODUCT  -->
	<% include prod_aCatProd %>
<% else %>
	<% if Level(4) %>
		<!-- 4: PRODUCT LISTING.. -->
		<% include prod_aCategory4 %>
	<% else %>
		<% if Level(3) %>
			<!-- 3: STORAGE  -->
			<% include prod_aCategory3 %>
		<% else %>
			<% if Level(2) %>
				<!-- 2: LANDING  -->
			<% end_if %>
		<% end_if %>	
	<% end_if %>
<% end_if %>

so you should have

<% if InSection(administrative-news) %>
                  administrative-news
<% else %>
               <% if InSection(image-galleries) %>
                  image-galleries
               <% else %>
                  ... alternative content ...
               <% end_if %>
<% end_if %>

then it will check the admin news first then the image galleries and then alternative content last

hope that helps. I know this is an old post but i came across it with no answer and hopefully it helps someone..
