Less than...
PHP Code:
<if conditional="$auinfo[total] < $auinfo[posts]">
Less than stuff here
<else />
Greater than stuff here
</if>
... should work. As far as your parsing errors it's most likely due to you not encapsulating the variables. For example,
PHP Code:
<if condition="$auinfo[field7] == I do not have a package">
should be...
PHP Code:
<if condition="$auinfo[field7] == 'I do not have a package'">
Note the single quotes around the value.
