I need to create a if certain attrib = a string then go to canvas and write

I have this Flash code and I need to turn it into javascript it's a few simple keywords or syntax is missing cause What I want is

if $(Play).attr('PlayType') == "PERIODEND" {
		if $(Play).attr('Status') == "HT" {
			
var c=document.getElementById("myCanvas");
var ctx=c.getContext("2d");
var grd=ctx.createLinearGradient(0,0,200,0);
grd.addColorStop(0,"Yellow");
grd.addColorStop(1,"Orange");

// Fill with gradient
ctx.fillStyle=grd;
ctx.font="30px Arial";
ctx.fillText("Hafetime",10,50);
		}
		}

Open in new window

but of course there is alot more like
END OF 1st QUARTER
END OF 2nd QUARTER
END OF 3rd QUARTER
END OF 4th QUARTER
then if $(Play).attr('PlayType') == "PERIODSTART" This is not a problem as long as I get first
example Halftime then I can just use some code for the rest of displaying static text string based on xml data

The if syntax is wrong. You have:
if ... {...}

You are missing the enclosing parentheses:
if (...) {...}

Yo I don't understand I have if (...) {...} Please just show me in the IF Statement I'm not brillant

if $(Play).attr('PlayType') == {"PERIODEND"}{
		if $(Play).attr('Status') == {"HT"}{
			
var c=document.getElementById("myCanvas");
var ctx=c.getContext("2d");
var grd=ctx.createLinearGradient(0,0,200,0);
grd.addColorStop(0,"Yellow");
grd.addColorStop(1,"Orange");

// Fill with gradient
ctx.fillStyle=grd;
ctx.font="30px Arial";
ctx.fillText("Hafetime",10,50);
