[SOLVED] what IF???

[adrumsolo4u]

i am trying to write a simple "if" function, which would work fine in C++ but php doesn't like it much

if ((empty($sub1)) || ($sub0 = home)) {
    echo '
            some text';
  }

 

what i want this to do is

IF ((sub1 is empty) OR (sub0 = home))

echo '

this stuff

';

 

i know this should work, have i made any errors?

Well, you're not doing a comparison with the second half of your "if"... remember that "=" is assignment while "==" is comparison:

<?php
if (empty($sub1) || ($sub0 == 'home')) {

}
?>

i tried using == as well as =

i also tried inserting the ' ' around the home, and taking them away

the results are all the same.

There's nothing wrong with obsidians code.  If you have that, then your variable isn't empty, and it doesn't equal "home".

i found a problem in my code. i had previously been using one integer, then i switched it's name, except for one, which i must have over looked, my code works fine now, but thanks anyway
