Actually JavaScript and most C like languages don't see the difference between if (<condition>) <statement> and if (<condition>) <block> because a <block> can go anywhere a <statement> can go. Interestingly, and the point of difference here is, Perl requires a <block> in many places where more Cish languages are happy with just a <statement>.
