conditional on parentid

[sabret00the]

is it possible to do a conditional on a parentid? i.e.

<if condition="($forum[parentid] == X) OR ($forum[parentid] == Y)"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/$forum[forumid]/IMAGE.gif" alt="" border="0" style="display:none; filter:alpha(opacity=80); -moz-opacity: 0.6;" align="left" /></if>
