JREAM Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I got a column in a MySQL table that grabs out a number value, like: 1, 2, 3, 4. When I echo it into PHP you get lets say, while (...) { echo $row; } and it will come out as a digit. Is there a way to assign the #'s a value so that, echo $row // if row == 1 change the text to 'favorite'; echo $row // if row == 2 change the text to 'non-favorite'; etc.. Is there a good way to go about such a thing? I dont want it to change the database (because if a global setting changed it needs to stay consistent) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/157871-solved-rename-1-to-favorite-only-in-the-output/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

allworknoplay Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 switch would probably work fine here Agreed. Switch is faster than using If conditionals........
