Re: [PHP] switch with multiple case

[Phil Driscoll]

Same as C

switch($something)
{
 case "this": do that;break;
 case "those":case "them": do other; break
 ...
 default: print error
}

Cheers

RE: [PHP] switch with multiple case

[Matt Williams]

switch($something)
{
  case "this":
do this;
break;
  case "those":
  case "them":
do other;
break;
  case "crap":
  case "doesn't matter":
  case "whatever":
do nothing;
break;
  default:
print error;
}

 snip
 %
   select case something
   case "this" do that
   case "those","them" do other
   case "crap","doesn't matter","whatever" do nothing
   case else print error
   end select
 %
 /snip
 
 IN PHP you can't do cases like that, because like in C, u must have a 
 constant, not a list of them.
 Is there anyway to get pass this? Doing a case for each thing 
 even tough it 
 does the exact same thing as 10 others is going to get a little 
 stupid code.

 In ASP, you can have something like:
 
 snip
 %
 select case something
 case "this" do that
 case "those","them" do other
 case "crap","doesn't matter","whatever" do nothing
 case else print error
 end select
 %
 /snip

Is this what you want?

?php
switch ($val) {
 case 'this':
 // do that
 break;
 case 'those':
 case 'them':
 // do that
 break;
  case 'crap':
  case 'doesnt matter':
  case 'whatever':
  break; // do nothing
  default:
 print('error');
 break;
}
?

BTW, this works C/C++.
