Using both AND, OR in If condition Javascript

Question

Similar questions haven't justified my actual question. I have a If condition where if it satisfies 2 conditions it should set value as A else B. Below is the code block describing my question

if(($form[0].lang.value==SPN||PTB||GRM) && ("1" == "<awi:script script='IsTranslationON'/>"))
    {
    $form[0].$rtag.value = "Test"+$form[0].lang.value+"_"+$form[1].take1.value+"_SUPPORT_Translation";
     }
    else
      {$form[0].$rtag.value = "Test"+$form[0].lang.value+"_"+$form[1].take1.value+"_SUPPORT";}
 //Submit form
      submit=false;
      if(submit){$form[0].submit()}else{alert($form[0].$rtag.value)}

Issue is - evrytime it gets deiplayed only statement from If condition. It is not checking value with $lang.value Does any of the mates help me checking my if condition please. EDIT- The value I am getting in alert box is "Test_IND_GENERAL_SUPPORT_Translation".

This is a system value I am getting it is 1 which is true in my case. — Maverick

This $form[0].lang.value==SPN||PTB||GRM is incorrect. You need to write a new condition check for each of these expected values. EG

if($form[0].lang.value==SPN || $form[0].lang.value== PTB ... etc )

as it's written the values are variables.

Your solution helped me to debug the issue. But I missed " " there which in turn chnaged to assigning the values rather than comparing. It should be $form[0].lang.value=="SPN" || $form[0].lang.value== "PTB"

This line

$form[0].lang.value==SPN||PTB||GRM

Will compare $form[0].lang.value with SPN and then logical OR PTB and GRM. If any of PTB and GRM is truthy value, then this condition will succeed.

If SPN, PTB and GRM are variables, then put them in an array first.

var langArr =  [ SPN, PTB, GRM ];
if((langArr.indexOf( $form[0].lang.value) !=  - 1 ) && ("1" == "<awi:script script='IsTranslationON'/>"))

For a concise check, you could put the values into an array and check with Array#includes.

[SPN, PTB, GRM].includes($form[0].lang.value)
