If Then Else

[AnotherQuestion]

I have a script which is supposed to take user to different pages depending on their input on a previous form. I have checked that the correcr values are getting to this code.

 

$_SESSION['Normal']= "TRUE";
$_SESSION['RegNo'] = $_GET['RegNo'];
$_SESSION['Make'] = $_GET['Make'];
$_SESSION['Model'] =$_GET['Model'];
$_SESSION['EngineSize'] =$_GET['EngineSize'];
If ($_GET['4wdYes'] = 'on') 
{
$_SESSION['FourWheelDrive'] = "TRUE" ;
$_SESSION['Normal']= "FALSE";
}
If ($_GET['4wdNo'] = 'on') 
{
$_SESSION['FourWheelDrive'] = "FALSE" ;
$_SESSION['Normal']= "FALSE";
}
If ($_SESSION['EngineSize'] >= '3000')
{
$_SESSION['LargeEngine'] ="TRUE";
$_SESSION['Normal']= "FALSE";
}										
If ($_SESSION['Make'] == 'BMW'){$_SESSION['MakeCheck'] = "TRUE";}
If ($_SESSION['Make'] == 'MERCEDES') {$_SESSION['MakeCheck'] = "TRUE";}																						
If ( ($_SESSION['MakeCheck'] =="TRUE") AND 
     ($_SESSION['EngineSize'] >='2000') ) 
{
    $_SESSION['Special'] = "TRUE";
$_SESSION['Normal']= "FALSE";
}

If ($_SESSION['Normal'] = "TRUE")
{
$URL="http://www.ultimatblablay.com/Quotes/GoldQuote2.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
}

ElseIf ($_SESSION['Special'] = "TRUE")
{
$URL="http://www.ultimateblablanty.com/Quotes/GoldQuote3.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
}

ElseIf ($_SESSION['LargeEngine'] = "TRUE")
{
$URL="http://www.ultimatevehiclanty.com/Quotes/GoldQuote4.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
}

Else {
$URL="http://www.ultimablaba.com/Quotes/GoldQuote5.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
}
?>

However it always sends users to the same place

 

goldquote2. The first line

When evaluating an 'equal to' condition you must use the ' == ' or ' <> ' operators.  Using a single ' = ' will not work and the conditional argument will not produce the expected result.

 

If ($_GET['4wdYes'] = 'on') SHOULD BE If ($_GET['4wdYes'] == 'on')

 

If ($_GET['4wdNo'] = 'on') SHOULD BE If ($_GET['4wdNo'] == 'on')

[AnotherQuestion]

I have changed the = to == and it still fails to work.

 

[phporcaffeine]

Put:

var_dump($_GET);

as the first line in the code that you put here and then submit your form like normal with the values that you think should be giving you a different result than you are getting.  The whole $_GET stack will dump and then we can see what is actually being presented to the code.  Please post the dump results.

[AnotherQuestion]

Did a test with form.

 

array(6) { ["RegNo"]=> string(7) "Ck57HZZ" ["Make"]=> string(3) "BMW" ["Model"]=> string(4) "318i" ["EngineSize"]=> string(4) "3000" ["4wdNo"]=> string(2) "on" ["Next"]=> string(4) "Next" }

 

 

with these results it should set $Session['Special'] ="True"

 

and goto goldquote3.php

 

 

instead it goes to line 37 --> goldquote2.php

Hi, can you print out the session vars as they are right before you decide which page to show?

Clearly the $_SESSION["Normal"] is not being changed  to "False"

[AnotherQuestion]

LargeEngine:TRUE

 

Special:TRUE

 

4x4:FALSE

 

Normal:FALSE

 

[cbolson]

well I'm baffled.

 

Assuming that you have changed all the appropriate = to == as phpORcaffine mentioned this really should work.

Unless...

As I am sure you know, "true" is normally used for Boolean values.

Hoever, for whatever reason, here you are using them as a normal string, but maybe in your IF clause php  interprets $_SESSION["Normal"] as being true (boolean) because it is defined and has a value....

 

Doesn't sound right but might be worth testing with a differnt value other than the words "TRUE" and "FALSE"

Did you also change:

If ($_SESSION['Normal'] = "TRUE")
{
$URL="http://www.ultimatblablay.com/Quotes/GoldQuote2.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
}

TO

If ($_SESSION['Normal'] == "TRUE")
{
$URL="http://www.ultimatblablay.com/Quotes/GoldQuote2.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
}

 

Notice the '==' and not the '='. You may take a moment and ensure that all 'equal to' conditions are using the '==' operator and not a single '='.

[AnotherQuestion]

I have changed the code and it still doesnt't work.

 

unset($_SESSION['Normal']);
unset($_SESSION['LargeEngine']);
unset($_SESSION['EngineLarge']);
unset($_SESSION['EngineSpecial']);
unset($_SESSION['MakeSpecial']);
unset($_SESSION['Special']);

If ($_SESSION['EngineSize'] >=2000) {$_SESSION['EngineSpecial'] = TRUE;}
If ($_SESSION['Make'] == 'BMW') {$_SESSION['$MakeSpecial'] = TRUE;}
If ($_SESSION['Make'] == 'MERCEDES') {$_SESSION['$MakeSpecial'] = TRUE;}

If ($_SESSION['EngineSize'] >=3000) 
{$_SESSION['EngineLarge'] = TRUE;
 $_SESSION['Normal'] = FALSE;	
}

If (($_SESSION['$MakeSpecial'] == TRUE) AND
 ($_SESSION['$EngineSpecial'] == TRUE)) 
{ $_SESSION['Special'] = TRUE;
  $_SESSION['Normal'] = FALSE;
}

If ($_SESSION['FourWheelDrive'] = "Yes")
{$_SESSION['Normal'] = FALSE;
}

If ($_SESSION['Normal'] == TRUE)
{
$URL="http://www.ultom/Quote/GoldQuoteResult.php";
header ("Location: $URL"); 
}

ElseIf ($_SESSION['Special'] == TRUE)
{
$URL="http://www./Quote/GoldQuoteResult1.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
}

ElseIf ($_SESSION['FourWheelDrive'] == "Yes")
{
$URL="http://www.ult/Quote/GoldQuoteResult2.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
}

ElseIf ($_SESSION['LargeEngine'] == TRUE)
{
$URL="http://www.ulti/Quote/GoldQuoteResult3.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
}

You fixed the =, == problem but you introduced problems with your array associations.

 

Try without the '$' in your arrays

ie: $_SESSION['$MakeSpecial']

should be

$_SESSION['MakeSpecial']

etc

[AnotherQuestion]

I have removed the $and still no joy. it always goes to

 

ElseIf ($_SESSION['Special'] == TRUE)
{
$URL="http://www./Quote/GoldQuoteResult1.php";
header ("Location: $URL");
}

 

 

[AnotherQuestion]

I thought id try placing the TRUE & FALSE into 'TRUE' and 'FALSE'

 

still dosent work

{$_SESSION['EngineLarge'] = 'TRUE';
