That's because HTML is a markup language not a programming language - it has no concept of conditional operations, loops, variables or other programming language constructs.

If you want to display one thing or another based on some sort of input you will either need to use Javascript (to perform the operation client side) or submit the form, let the server do the processing and return the appropriate HTML to the user.

If you post a clearer description of 'what' effect you are trying to achieve, someone will be able to direct you to the most appropriate method of achieving it.
