[SOLVED] Goto

[waz]

is there a goto/skip equilent for php like there is in c++ and vb.  By goto i mean a line in the code not a redirect.

 

Have had a look but cant find any good examples.

are you looking for

 

exit for?

 

for breaking out of a for loop for example, but a GOTO maybe you need to rethink your logic?!

what my logic is simple i need to do a path check with a path variable which changes location every time its not found  with a maxium of 3 paths now if i dont find it i need to skip some code under neath now i am aware people generally flame gotos and yes it is frowned upon however in some casses they are acceptable and i need to break out of loop and this is easiest way to write it.

Firstly i suggest you use a bit of punctuation while you post, especially if you talk about logic which is hard to get...

 

Now secondly there are many ways to implement any logic with php

Using switch,if ... then ... else..., looping, functions .

 

now if i have understood correctly from your post since you only want to check one variable i suggest you use the switch statement which faster than multiple if...then...else .
