whats wrong with this statement??

[adamhhh]

if if ($start_year % 4 != 0  etc...

 

so im trying to look to see if the start year isnt divided by 4 (it works for when it is). But this statement doesnt work and i cant figure out why??

[mbtaylor]

if ($start_year % 4 == 0) {
# the year is divisible by 4
}else{
# the year is not divisible by 4
}

 

!= 0 should work fine too (the opposite obviously).

[adamhhh]

it should but it doesnt 

 

ignore the double if by the way.

[mbtaylor]

Odd, only thing I can think is if its looking for false? 1=true, 0=false etc.

 

Maybe the triple equal would sort that !== that does type check too I believe.

[adamhhh]

nope tried that too  ???

[mbtaylor]

bugger knows then lol maybe someone else will enlighten us!

This code

<?php
$start_year = date('Y')+1;
if ($start_year % 4 == 0) {
echo "ok";
}else{
echo "not ok";
}
?>

works fine for me.

 

Please show us your value of "$start_year" and why you're saying it doesn't work.
