switch() does not work that way.  Switch uses the value in the parentheses and selects 
a
CASE based upon that value.  Read the manual.

You will have to use a series of if()-elseif()-else()

Subject: [PHP] Another problem with conditional statements


Hi,

This should be as simple as breathing, but not today. I have two variables
$a and $b which I need to compare in a switch statement in several different
ways, but no matter what I do it's wrong.

This is what I have tried, can someone tell me how it should be.

TIA

switch (true):

    case ($a == $b):             This one seems simple enough.
            do sum stuff;
            break;

    case ($a && $b == 124):   This appears not to work.
            do sum stuff;
            break;

    case ($a == 124 && $b == 755):  If $a is equal to 124 and $b is equal to
755 then it should be true..doesn't work.
            do sum stuff;
            break;

    case ($a == 124 && $b != 124):   Nope, this doesn't appear to work
either.
            do sum stuff;
            break;

endswitch;
