[Flashcoders] [AS2] problem with conditional statement "else if"

[jimmi]

Hi, for a project it is required that I make a module with AS2.
I already got most of the module working, except for one part: the slider. 
The slider button is supposed to stop at six points. 
I thought that the if..else..if statement would do just fine for this purpose. 

The problem is that only the first two statements work, the rest doesn't. 
So the slider slides just fine, but it only "snaps" to point one and point two.
I also tried chekking the position of the btn with a onEnterFrame event, it 
only traces "one" and "two". 
When I specifically check the ._x position(without a conditional statement) of 
the slider button it does trace that value.

As far as I know there isn't a difference in how AS2 and AS3 handle conditional 
statements, right?

If anyone can help me in to the right direction with this it would be mucht 
appreciated.

// click
btn1.onMouseDown = function() 
 {
  btn1.startDrag(true,189,176,365.9,176) 
 }
 
// release
btn1.onMouseUp = btn.onReleaseOutside=function () 
 {
  if (btn1._x < 206 )
  {
   btn1._x = 189;
   this.stopDrag();
   trace("one");
  }
  else if (btn1._x > 208 || btn1._x < 241)
  {
   btn1._x = 224.3;
   btn1.stopDrag();
   trace("two");
  }
  else if (btn1._x > 243 || btn1._x < 273)
  {
   btn1._x = 259.7;
   btn1.stopDrag();
   trace("three");
  }
  else if (btn1._x > 279 || btn1._x < 309)
  {
   btn1._x = 295.1;
   btn1.stopDrag();

  {
   trace("five");
  }
  else if ((btn1._x > 351) || (btn1._x < 377))
  {
   trace("six");
  }
  else
  {
   trace("nuttin");
  }
  
    // x value of btn1
  trace(btn1._x)
 }
