How to parse an enumerations field for a conditional script?

I have a user that needs a conditional script written based on selections from a multi-select enumeration field. I am not sure how to do this. There are some notes in the api that makes me wonder if you can do this. I can get the values from the field but I need to parse them. Can you tell me how to do this? Are there limitations on dojo (I don't know dojo but the spec is large - how much does RTC recognize. I have only seen a few dojo requires fields like date outside of ibm types.
