Ohh yeah..It works that way..I saw at the ant contribs and didn't realise the

Thanks a ton for the help Francis..

You can implement that nearly verbatim using the ant-contrib extensions which 
provide if/elseif/else capabilities.  The only change from what you have below 
would be to the syntax of your conditional expressions for example, correct 
equals syntax would be: <equals arg1=²${prop1}² arg2=²1²/>
