Use strtolower() on all entries from the form, so you can compare them (in lowercase)
without worry about whether the user entered "MA", "ma", "Ma", or "mA".

I want to test a value that was typed into a form, but I don't want the case
to be a problem, how can I get around this??
This is what I have now:
function calculate_tax($OrderedByState,$ShipState)
{
global $totalPrice;
//tax calculation
$taxRate = "0.05";
if ($OrderedByState=="MA" && $ShipState=="MA") {
$taxcost=$taxRate*$totalPrice;
} else if ($OrderedByState=="MA" && $ShipName != "" && $ShipState!="MA") {
$taxcost= "0.00";
} else if ($OrderedByState=="MA" && $ShipState=="") {
$taxcost=$taxRate*$totalPrice;
} else if ($ShipState=="MA") {
$taxcost=$taxRate*$totalPrice;
} else {
$taxcost= "0.00";
}
return $taxcost;
}
Thanks for any help!
