Hello,
I was just wondering after writting the code in version 2 here below, it turns out in testing that
it actually PHP is not validating the expressions instead always I get the first case.
1.Using nested if statement {THE INTENDED BEHAVIOR}:
if ($count > 14)
$boxes = 3;
elseif($count > 7 && $count <= 14)
$boxes = 2;
else
$boxes = 1;
2. Using Switch {ALWAYS FIRST CASE!!!}
// $boxes = 1;
// switch ($count) {
// case ($count > 14):
// $boxes = 3;
// break;
// case ($count > 7 && $count <= 14):
// $boxes = 2;
// break;
// case ($count <= 7):
// default :
// $boxes = 1;
// break;
// }
Does anyone know the answer why using the Switch it always execute the first case ?
Many thanks
Omar
