   hey everyone!
   i was wondering if you could help me with this little problem.
   currently i have this code in page.php

   <?php if ( is_page('encountering-conflict') || $post->post_parent == '194') { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar-enc.php');?>

   <?php } else { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar-alt.php');?>
   <?php } ?>

   now i would like to add in another conditional tag for another page. So I'd like another unique sidebar for a different page. How would i go about doing this?

   for example, something like:

   <?php if ( is_page('encountering-conflict') || $post->post_parent == '194') { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar-enc.php');?>

   <?php if ( is_page('') || $post->post_parent == '##') { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar-OTHERSIDEBAR.php');?>

   <?php } else { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar-alt.php');?>
   <?php } ?>

   however, i know this code does not work because i've tried it. does anyone know how to code for what i'm trying to do?
   i'm sorry if this is confusing...

   <?php if ( is_page('encountering-conflict') || $post->post_parent == '194') { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar-enc.php'); }?>
   
   <?php elseif ( is_page('') || $post->post_parent == '##') { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar-OTHERSIDEBAR.php');?>
   
   <?php } else { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar-alt.php');?>
   <?php } ?>

   Try this code.

   hey gisha james,
   thanks for the reply, but unfortunately it didn't work.

   i got this instead

   Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSEIF

   is there another way?

   I found this code on the internet which could work.....

   <?php 
   
   if (is_page('Page Name 1') || $post->post_parent == '##') {
   include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/right-1.php');
   
   } elseif (is_page('Page Name 2') || $post->post_parent == '##') {
   include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/right-2.php');
   
   } elseif (is_page('Page Name 3') || $post->post_parent == '##') {
   include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/right-3.php');
   
   } elseif (is_page('Page Name 4') || $post->post_parent == '##')
   include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/right-4.php');
   
   ?>

   but not sure how i would code for my main sidebar. I understand how to do the unique sidebars with this code, but where would i put this part?

   <?php } else { ?>
   <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.'/sidebar-alt.php');?>
   <?php } ?>

   sorry if this is confusing again! help would be much appreciated!
