Max number of if statements?

Question

Folks:

I'm wondering if there's a maximum number of if statements allowed before things fall apart.

I'm evaluating if a field has content. If no, display nothing. If yes, display whatever I say. Code:

 {if segment_2 != "product1"}
{related_entries id="product2_specifications"}
<ul>
{if max_height}<li>Maximum height - {max_height}</li>{/if}
{if weight_in_lbs}<li>Weight - {weight_in_lbs}</li>{/if}
<li>Overall length of body - {body_overall_length}</li>
<li>Overall Width - {overall_width}</li>
<li>Inside Seat Width - {inside_seat_width}</li>
<li>Inside Height - {inside_height}</li>
{if legroom_length}<li>Legroom (Length) - {legroom_length}</li>{/if}
{if height_from_ground}<li>Height (from ground) - {height_from_ground}</li>{/if}
{if folded_dimensions}<li>Folded Dimensions - {folded_dimensions}</li>{/if}
{if capacity}<li>Capacity - {capacity}</li>{/if}
{if frame}<li>Frame - {frame}</li>{/if}
{if floor}<li>Floor - {floor}</li>{/if}
{if wheels}<li>Wheels - {wheels}</li>{/if}
{if platform_base_size} <li>Platform base size - {platform_base_size}</li>{/if}
</ul>
{/related_entries}

{if:else}

{related_entries id="product1_specifications"}
<ul>
<li>Maximum payload - {max_payload_product1}</li>
<li>Weight in pounds - {weight_in_lbs_product1}</li>
<li>Overall Length - {overall_length_product1}</li>
<li>Overall Width - {overall_width_product1}</li>
<li>Frame width - {frame_width_product1}</li>
<li>Inside Box - {inside_box_product1}</li>
{if platform_base_size} <li>Platform base size - {platform_base_size}</li>{/if}
</ul>
{/related_entries}

{/if}

This code works. Now, if I add a single if statement, the whole thing fails. For example, if I add:

{if inside_height}<li>Inside Height - {inside_height}</li>{/if}

to the first part, it throws an T_ENDIF error.

I've tried the ifelse plug-in with no success.

I should also note that this is a snippet placed inside a template. Template has a Switchee switch but the error also occurs with a simple if statement.

{exp:switchee variable = "{segment_2}" parse="inward"}
{case value="product2"}
            {exp:channel:entries channel="product2_information"}  
            {product_information}
            {/exp:channel:entries}
{/case}
{/exp:switchee}

where product_information is the snippet.

Could very well be an easier way to do this. If so, let me know.

Any help would be appreciated.

There is no maximum number of if statements. The T_ENDIF error you're getting means that there's either a malformed or unclosed conditional somewhere in your code.

First try removing your snippet from within the Switchee block to eliminate that, then remove/re-add your conditionals line-by-line to see exactly when the error starts.
