Re: php: "else if" problem

read the manual, you can use both ("else if" and "elseif"). The script does exactly what you tell it to. The flaw(s) is(/are) in your logic. Second of all, might I please advise you to have a good look at your code, and at least *try* to clean it up a bit? I'm sure you didn't mean it like this, but your code is wordwrapped in such a weird way that it's hard to distinguish what is actual executable code, and what your comments are supposed to be - tul Franklin van de Meent wrote:

In PHP you should write it as "} elseif {", so there's no space between else and if. Read http://php.net/elseif for more details On Tue, 22 Mar 2005 22:48:00 +0200, Leonidas Savvides <a080725@cytanet.com.cy> wrote:

?> _____ problem

1.      executes first statement what ever vars are
2.      if no "!" to  first statement , executes second statement
3.      if no "!" to  first & second  statement, executes first

include_once() statement meaning : } else if ( $tsp < $tsnow ) { include_once ("wrongpickupdate.htm"); } whatever values of $tsp & $tsnow are . well WHERE THE PROBLEM IS ?
