I just also found that you can add extra conditional statements inside of a case, which is what I was hoping to find out but nobody seems to have yet mentioned. <?php $int=5; switch($int) { case 1: echo "this is 1"; break; case 2: echo "this is 2"; break; case ($int > 4): echo "this is greater than 4"; break; } ?> You would probably expect the conditional ($int > 4) to return TRUE, and then compare (integer) 5 to (integer) 1, but instead it does the (5 > 4) comparison and it outputs "this is greater than 4". Just in case you need to specify a specific range of other values instead of just default.
