[SOLVED] Changing colours for echo

[SirChick]

If i have an echo which can change.. which i currently have this:

 

<font style="font-size:16px" color="#FFFFFF" face="Arial"><b><u><?= $ResultQuote ?></u></b></font></div>

 

 

How do i change it so that the colour will change depending on the what the $ResultQuote is?

[nathanmaxsonadil]

if($ResultQuote = '$100')
{
echo '<font style="font-size:16px" color="green" face="Arial">';
echo $ResultQuote;
echo '</font></div>';
}else if($ResultQuote = '$200')
{
echo '<font style="font-size:16px" color="yellow" face="Arial">';
echo $ResultQuote;
echo '</font></div>';
}else if($ResultQuote = '$300')
{
echo '<font style="font-size:16px" color="red" face="Arial">';
echo $ResultQuote;
echo '</font></div>';
}

sorry the code I posted does not work

Change

if($ResultQuote = '$100')

to

if($ResultQuote == '$100')

(the rest of the places too).

 

= is an assignment operator

== is a comparison operator

[nathanmaxsonadil]

lol I just figured that out

[SirChick]

aye i was just about to say lol!

 

 

But can you do it with captions?

 

<?

if($ResultQuote == 'Result: You search the train station from top to bottom and find $1!')

{

echo '<font style="font-size:16px" color="green" face="Arial">';

echo $ResultQuote;

echo '</font></div>';

}else if($ResultQuote == 'You failed to find any money, better try some other time!')

{

echo '<font style="font-size:16px" color="red" face="Arial">';

echo $ResultQuote;

echo '</font></div>';

}else if($ResultQuote == 'Result: You search the train station from top to bottom and find $3!')

{

echo '<font style="font-size:16px" color="green" face="Arial">';

echo $ResultQuote;

echo '</font></div>';

}else if($ResultQuote == 'Result: You search the train station from top to bottom and find $5!')

{

echo '<font style="font-size:16px" color="green" face="Arial">';

echo $ResultQuote;

echo '</font></div>';

}

?>

 

 

this is what i put.. but it just displays nothing.. ?

 

the $ResultQuote is created in an include else where... just encase you wondered why i compare them to strings

[Daniel0]

Before the if statements, try to echo $ResultQuote to see what it actually is.

[nathanmaxsonadil]

it works for me

[SirChick]

hmm it doesnt echo it. good spot. gah that is rediculously annoying lol so many lines to look through *cries* lol

 

 

would any one care to take a look ? i cant post it here though way too much to post and im not comfortable posting my work too everyone :/

[nathanmaxsonadil]

change

else if($ResultQuote == 'Result: You search the train station from top to bottom and find $5!')
{
echo '<font style="font-size:16px" color="green" face="Arial">';
echo $ResultQuote;
echo '</font></div>';
}

to

else if($ResultQuote == 'Result: You search the train station from top to bottom and find $5!')
{
echo '<font style="font-size:16px" color="green" face="Arial">';
echo $ResultQuote;
echo '</font></div>';
}else
{
echo 'none of those';
echo $ResultQuote;
}

[SirChick]

"none of those" came out.

so that means its not writing to the variable properly in my other scripts then.

[nathanmaxsonadil]

even if your $varible was not defined the last else would still come out  strange

[SirChick]

no cos if my $variable was blank it would go to the else if which would then :

 

 

echo  'none of those';

[SirChick]

i found my error its to do with this:

 

 

if ($EXP <= 300) AND ($EXP > 100)

 

can you see whats wrong with it ?

 

this is the error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_LOGICAL_AND in C:\xampp\htdocs\UnderBridgeCrimeScript.php on line 30

[Daniel0]

if (($EXP <= 300) AND ($EXP > 100))[code]

[/code]
