'else' is not the problem: expressions are :) (problem of priority?)

this is ok

    if {true} {echo ok} else {echo nope}

those are syntax errors

    if{true} {echo ok} else {echo nope}
    if {true}{echo ok} else {echo nope}
    if {true} {echo ok} else{echo nope}

this does not echoes what you expected :)

    if {true} {echo ok}else {echo nope}

marc
