How do you put else condition on this function

Hello,

I have a function like this:

Code:

---

video.addEventListener("play", function(event) {
    // show image A
});

---

I want it to look like this:

Code:

---

if (play) {
        show image A
} else {
        show image B
}

---

How would I achieve this?

Thanks

What would the value of play be, and how would you plan to set its value?

It's just an example. I want to make an else statement to a function like this one and see if it possible. There should be other ways around but I has yet to discover it.

Sorry, I'm confused at the moment, will ask again later after doing some experiments.

Is there some reason why simply wrapping the if/else inside the function wouldn't work?
