[SOLVED] help understanding a few things


cry of war

Recommended Posts

i have seen some things that look the same and i was wondering what each does what

 

$something="somethingelse"

$something=="somethingelse"

$something==="somethingelse"

$something='somethingelse'

$something=='somethingelse'

$something==='somethingelse'

(!isset($_POST['something']))

(isset($_POST['something']))

 

what does each of these do or what are each used to do? I cant really explain what I am asking anybetter sorry

$something = "somethingelse" sets the value of the variable $something to the string something else.

$something  = 'somethingelse' is exactly the same

 

if ($something == "somethingelse") is a test for equality - with double or single quotes, it's the same

 

=== is an absolute equality operator: for example the string "0" is not the same as the number 0 with that kind of check

 

isset is looking to see if the variable something has a value POSTed from a form. ! is not
