My IF statement should be picking up on the numbers, and if the number
matches not be displaying out the information, however I look at the
outputted page and the information is still there, what have I got wrong
on the code?
<CODE SNIPPET>
//Show categories first
$get_cats = "select id_num, id_name, description, cat_code from
categories order by id_name";
$get_cats_res = mysql_query($get_cats) or die(mysql_error());
if (mysql_num_rows($get_cats_res) < 1)
{
$display_block = "<P><em>Sorry, no categories to
browse.</em></P>";
}
else
{
while ($cats = mysql_fetch_array($get_cats_res))
{
$cat_id = $cats[id_num];
if ($cat_id != "53" || $cat_id != "54" || $cat_id != "55" || $cat_id
!= "117" || $cat_id != "118" || $cat_id != "74")
{
$cat_title = strtoupper(stripslashes($cats[id_name]));
$cat_desc = stripslashes($cats[description]);
$display_block .= "<strong><a
href=$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]?cat_id=$cat_id>$cat_title
$cat_desc</a></strong><br>\n";
while ($items = mysql_fetch_array($get_items_res))
{
$item_id = $items[id];
$item_num = $items[item_num];
$item_desc = stripslashes($items[description]);
if ($item_num != "ABC-R37" || $item_num != "ABC-R42" || $item_num
!= "HB-99100" || $item_num != "RO-PUMPS" || $item_num != "ML-HDGALJUG"
|| $item_num != "PFS-CAC21" || $item_num != "PFS-CO2")
{
$item_num = ltrim($item_num);
$item_num = rtrim($item_num);
$display_block .= " <em><strong><a
href=\"catalog/$item_id.html\">$item_num</a></strong> -
$item_desc</em><br>\n";
}
}
<END SNIPPETS>
My assumption is that BOTH IF statements are not working correctly since
the logic is that if they are built the same they would react the same.
HELP!
TIA!
