Using If condition in visualforce

For this example I have written an APEX class to assign 5 accounts originally to a list. There is also a function which assigns all the records to that list.

public class iftest {
    public integer acclimit { get; set;}
    public integer total { get; set;}
    public list<account> acclist { get; set;}
    
    public iftest(){
        acclimit = 5;
        total = [select count() from account];
        acclist = [select id, name from account limit :acclimit];
    }
    
    public void allacc(){
        acclist = [select id, name from account];
    }
}

Before jumping onto the code itself, let’s discuss something. How to actually use the If condition? Using it is really simple and can be somewhat related to the usage of ternary operator. First of all, it must be in the formula expression. It must start with If, followed by parenthesis. The parenthesis will take 3 arguments, first the condition, in parenthesis again, second the value if true is returned, and the last argument, like you guessed, will be the value of condition is false.
The values can be any apex controller variable, or it can be strings written directly.

<apex:page controller="ifblog">
    <apex:form>
        <apex:commandButton action="{!allacc}" value="Show All Accounts" disabled="{!If((total<=acclimit),true,If((acclist.size>acclimit),true,false))}"/>
    	<apex:dataTable value="{!acclist}" var="acc">
        	<apex:column value="{!acc.id}" headerValue="Id"/>
            <apex:column value="{!acc.name}" headerValue="Name"/>
        </apex:dataTable>
    </apex:form>
</apex:page>

As you can see that the disabled attribute of the commandbutton is using the If condition, also the condition is nested. Now while nesting the if condition in Visualforce you need to be really careful of the parenthesis just like you need to be careful of scope normally.

The Output of my code will be something like this:
