# Multiple conditionals without using echo?

 * In page.php, I need a conditional that says, “If it’s the About page, display
   this text, if it’s the Contact page display this text, and for all other pages,
   display this text”.
 * I’ve seen examples of [multiple conditionals on the Codex page](http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags),
   but they all use an echo. I have PHP functions within my text that won’t execute
   within the echo. Can anyone demonstrate how to make this work?

 * Here is the format I use (you can use php between these):
 *     ```
       <?php if (is_page('about') ) { ?>
       <p>About text</p>
       <?php } elseif (is_page('contact') ) { ?>
       <p>Contact text</p>
       <?php } else { ?>
       <p>Default text</p>
       <?php } ?>
       ```

 * Brilliant, thank you! It was the curly brace before the elseif I had neglected.
