Multiple or in if statement

Question

I'm writing an if statement that has multiple or in it. If validate1 returns true, it doesn't execute validate2 or validate3. But I need it to check validate2 and validate3.

I can't use && here, it is not satisfying my expectation as I tried. And I didn't want to write multiple if

Is there any way to solved this with one if statement?

if (this.validate1(x, y) || this.validate2(a, b) || this.validate3(c, d))
{ }
else {
  showError();
}

I tried with and situations. Every validation is returning an error, with and if one of them is passing the validation then it's going to next step. This is not what i want.

And i write something wrong validate2 or validate3to be checked too.

Write out a working version with nested if statements so we know exactly what you're trying to do. — Bobby Speirs

How about

var val2 = this.validate2(a, b);
if (this.validate1(x, y) || val2 || this.validate3(c, d))
{ }
else {
  showError();
}

This way validate2 will always get called without changing the logic.
