ngreenwood6 Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I need some help with an if statement that I am trying to get accomplished. It's kind of confusing but bare with me here. I basically need an if statement inside of an if statement. It just keeps taking me to a blank screen. if($session_username != $new_username)//session username is from their session and new username comes from a form { if ($username_from_db > 0) //if the username is in the database { echo "do this"; } else { echo "do the rest of the first if statement"; } } else { process form } Any help is appreciated.

Are you sure your variables contain values? Because there's no syntax error, other than 'process form' not being commented out.

ngreenwood6 Posted August 5, 2008 Author Share Posted August 5, 2008 yes the variables contain values. I just put down some sample code that is not actually my code I am just trying to figure out how to correctly put an if statement inside of an if statement.

obsidian Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Try combining your checks: <?php if($session_username != $new_username && $username_from_db > 0) { echo "do this"; } else { process form } ?> Hope that makes sense.
