[SOLVED] else if

[jakebur01]

Is there a limit on how many else if statement you can use?

 

I am getting a PHP Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CLASS about the fifth one down.

 

if($productform == 'Shinform')
$productselect = Shin;

elseif($productform == 'Littleform')
$productselect = Little;

elseif($productform == 'Manform')
$productselect = Man;

elseif($productform == 'Smithform')
$productselect = Smith;

elseif ($productform == 'Classform')
$productselect = Class;

elseif($productform == 'OregonOform')
$productselect = OregonO;

elseif($productform == 'OregonFform')
$productselect = OregonF;

elseif($productform == 'Troyform')
$productselect = Troy;

elseif($productform == 'Whiteform')
$productselect = White;

elseif($productform == 'Trenchform')
$productselect = Trench;

else
echo $URL="http://www.mysite.com/nodealerselect.html";
header ("Location: $URL");

Easier and neater option would be to use Swith/case:
[code]
switch($productform){

case "Shinform":
$productselect = "Shin";
break;

case "Littleform":
$productselect = "Little";
break;

default:
echo $URL="http://www.mysite.com/nodealerselect.html";
header ("Location: $URL");
break;


}
etc etc

 

If others find the need to correct me please do so, have not used switch case in a while...[/code]

There's no limit that I know of, but "Class" is a reserved word.  If those are all meant to be strings you should wrap them in quotes.  PHP just assumes they're strings if not already defined as function, class, or variable names.
