RE: [PHP] ifelse/else

Hi Dave, If it fits your requirement, then you can try using, switch control structure: switch ($value) { case "a": Your code.. Break; case "b": $value=d; case "c": if $value <> "c" break; case "d"; } Break; will allow you to jump out of the switch control and that way other conditions will not fire. Or if you want more than one conditions to fire, you can change the $value in some case statement ( like it is done in case b above), not give a break in that particular case, and let the control flow to next case, and take the control to the case you want by using if statements as explained in the example above. Hope this helps. Mohit Mittal Software Engineer Patni Computer Systems (P) Ltd.

I need the code to check a match to a certain value, if not jump to next if statement. if it matches, it needs to exit the next if statements totally. Could you give me a rough idea on the structure please. Regards, Dave. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
