How do you insert an IF STATEMENT in mysql?

The manual says

Quote:
IF search_condition THEN statement_list
[ELSEIF search_condition THEN statement_list]
...
[ELSE statement_list]
END IF

IF implements a basic conditional construct. If the search_condition evaluates to true, the corresponding SQL statement list is executed. If no search_condition matches, the statement list in the ELSE clause is executed. statement_list can consist of one or more statements.



but this doesn't seem to work for me. I'd love a real world example that works.
