Are you using a particular XML application like XSLT? With XSLT you use
XPath to write conditions and it has an 'and' operator so you can use e.g.
<xsl:if test="element1 = 'foo' and element2 = 'bar'">

Otherwise it is not clear why you think XML is used to specify conditions.

XML is pure syntax. Which XML-based language are you working in?

XPath (the most common XML expression language) certainly has both these
operations.

XML (the markup syntax) doesn't provide for conditions.
Can you explain a little more about what you want to do?

The application semantics of XML are limited only by human ingenuity.
The markup means what you, as the designer of the vocabulary, say that
it means. As a consequence, (a) there are an infinite number of ways
to say what you want, and (b) it's rather important to document your
vocabulary.

Does this help?
