if else statement in XElement

I am wondering, how can I add a new XElement by using a if/else statement?

For example...

XDocument document = XDocument.Load(this.XMLFile);

document.Element("currentjobs").Add(

new XElement("job",

new XElement("date", now.ToShortDateString() + " " + now.ToUniversalTime()),

new XElement("name", job.name)

)

);

Now if I wanted to add a new XElement inside the element "job" in that XML by using if/else statement from a variable I have in C#.

The if else statement would be like...

if(job.status == 2)

{

//add XML...

}

How would I go ahead and do this?

Thanks!
