This doesnt work as expected.
if ( $var === TEST ONE || TEST TWO || TEST THREE) {
do something;
}
It returns true on all strings. Ive tried using the or operator and the ==
but these fail as well. Any Ideas?

Re: [PHP] Control Structure problem
yeah, it does make more sense to do it that way for some things, but when
you get ands, and ors, it gets complicated
eg.
if ($a == foo $b == bar || something){
//do something
}
does that mean $a can either = foo or something or $b = bar or
something?
and thats just a simple example :) but i know it would be really nice in
simple logical expressions

If by I truly know the level of expertise on this mailing list you
meant I truly don't know the basics of PHP syntax, then yeah, you'd be
right. ;) !!
/lovingjab
:)
Chris.
p.s. Or maybe it's me that's doesn't know the basics... ??
p.p.s. I totally think that the syntax you presented is logical and
should be available. It makes much more sense to me to do it the way you
did, but alas...

Re: [PHP] Control Structure problem
yeah, i really like using cases they work well and especially if you want to
do something different for different values, i forgot about that, its a good
way to do it,
does php have case else? cuz that is a really handy thing in VB that people
often forget...

Well technically you can do it like:
switch ($var) {
case 'TEST-1': case 'TEST-2': case 'TEST-2':
do something
}
