`else if(...) {` supported on its own line, but not `else {`?

    else if (...) {                           
      // ...
    }                                                                            
    else {                                                                       
      // ...
      break;                                                                     
    }                                     

I can’t figure out how get rid of 132:9 error Closing curly brace does not appear on the same line as the subsequent block brace-style, other than wrapping else up to the preceeding }, unlike all the else-if statements.

Bug, infelicity, or am I missing a config option?

Always put last else block at end of its previous block like: if(){ } else { }

I think writing this way should solve the issue (put else at the same line as the closing bracket) : if (foo) { alert(“blah”); } else if (!foo) { alert(“second blah”); }
