PHP If...Else Statements
The if, elseif and else statements in PHP are used to perform different
actions based on different conditions.
Conditional Statements
Very often when you write code, you want to perform different actions for
different decisions.
You can use conditional statements in your code to do this.
- if...else statement - use this statement if you want to execute
a set of code when a condition is true and another if the condition is not
true
- elseif statement - is used with the if...else statement to
execute a set of code if one of several condition are true
The If...Else Statement
If you want to execute some code if a condition is true and another code if a
condition is false, use the if....else statement.
Syntax
if (condition)
code to be executed if condition is true;
else
code to be executed if condition is false;
|
Example
The following example will output "Have a nice weekend!" if the current day
is Friday, otherwise it will output "Have a nice day!":
<html>
<body>
<?php
$d=date("D");
if ($d=="Fri")
echo "Have a nice weekend!";
else
echo "Have a nice day!";
?>
</body>
</html>
|
If more than one line should be executed if a condition is true/false, the
lines should be enclosed within curly braces:
<html>
<body>
<?php
$d=date("D");
if ($d=="Fri")
{
echo "Hello!<br />";
echo "Have a nice weekend!";
echo "See you on Monday!";
}
?>
</body>
</html>
|
The ElseIf Statement
If you want to execute some code if one of several conditions are true use
the elseif statement
Syntax
if (condition)
code to be executed if condition is true;
elseif (condition)
code to be executed if condition is true;
else
code to be executed if condition is false;
|
Example
The following example will output "Have a nice weekend!" if the current day
is Friday, and "Have a nice Sunday!" if the current day is Sunday. Otherwise it will output "Have a nice day!":
<html>
<body>
<?php
$d=date("D");
if ($d=="Fri")
echo "Have a nice weekend!";
elseif ($d=="Sun")
echo "Have a nice Sunday!";
else
echo "Have a nice day!";
?>
</body>
</html>
