actionscript 2

Hey everyone. I have a movie clip that I am dragging onto another movie clip and i want it to stay put. But once I add in another 'OR' statement in the if statement, it freaks out and doesn't work. Why is this?

This code works:

btn1.onRelease=function(){
	stopDrag();
	if(eval(this._droptarget) != btn1Hold) {
		this._x=this.startX;
		this._y=this.startY;
     }
	 else{
		//CODE
	 }
	 
}

This code DOES NOT work:

btn1.onRelease=function(){
	stopDrag();
	if( (eval(this._droptarget) != btn1Hold) || (eval(this._droptarget) != btn2Hold) ) {//CHANGED LINE
		this._x=this.startX;
		this._y=this.startY;
     }
	 else{
		//CODE
	 }
	 
}

For whatever reason it doesn't like the extra 'OR' in the if statement! why!?

Thanks in advance!

try using an 'AND' instead of an 'OR'

btn1.onRelease = function() {
	stopDrag();
	if ((eval(this._droptarget) != btn1Hold) && (eval(this._droptarget) != btn2Hold)) {
		this._x = this.startX;
		this._y = this.startY;
	} else {
		//CODE
	}
};

what do you mean by it freaks out?

I can't use 'AND' because i want to drag 'btn1' to either 'btn1Hold' or 'btn2Hold'. When i only give it an action when btn1Hold is being contacted, it does the code i want it to do. When i put in the 'OR' statement for either one of my landing places for my draggable movie clip, it doesn't work with either of 'btn1Hold' or 'btn2Hold'.
