Greetings, I'm attempting to write a "process of elimination" script so to speak. I have the conditionals set but once it finds a true statement it will stop. I want it to display all true statements isntead of just one. Basic Concept: Number's 1-3. I am using a form with 3 check box buttons and will submit it to my php script. The Problem: The script will do exactly what I want it to do when I select just one value via the form submit to php script (for example, 1, php script will say i have numbers 2 and 3 left to use). But when I choose value's 1 then 2, it will process it only as if I have only selected 2 and will then display numbers 1 and 3, despite me already chosing 1 and 2 instead of my desired result of saying I only have the number 3 left to use. Desired outcome: I want it to process both values, say 1 and 2 to tell me I only have number 3 left to use. I will evently have another box telling me the numbers I used as well next to the "number's left" section. But i have no idea how to make it execute more than 1 truth. I've tried using while, if, if else statements, but not of them have seemed to work for me. I'm not sure what to do, I've read up a bit and bought a book, but still nothing. :| Eventually I will to expand this to number's 1-6, but for explanation purposes, i'm saying 1-3. Here is what i have so far. My Html looks like this... [code] <input type="checkbox" name="player" value="1"> 1 <input type="checkbox" name="player" value="2"> 2 <input type="checkbox" name="player" value="3"> 3 [/code] The form and submit tags excluded. My processing script looks like this: [code] Your Numbers Left:<br> <?php switch ($player) { # Player's Number's Left     case '1':         echo ' ';     break;     default:         echo '1, '; } switch ($player) { # Player's Number's Left     case '2':         echo ' ';     break;     default:         echo '2, '; } switch ($player) { # Player's Number's Left     case '3':         echo ' ';     break;     default:         echo '3, '; } ?> [/code] How do I make it say I have the number 3 left to use after selecting 1 and 2 on the form. I know something along the lines of "if $player == 2 && == 3" might get what I want but that means I have to write out every possible scenario with number's 1-6. For example, I to choose 1, 2, 5, 6. I want it to tell me I have only 3, 4 left to use. And eventually tell me I already used 1, 2, 5, 6. Is there anyway I can do this via without having to write all possible number selections with 1-6 (I think that's 720 different possible selections till the final number remains), in php or do I need to look into another language? Thanks for the help!
