Question about PhpBB2

[dotBz]

Uhm, just one simple question. In PhpBB2 profile page, when you are logged in, you see in the your username, however if you would like to register, you see an input text box requiring you to enter your username. I think it's something like a switcheroo. Also if you are logged in, you see the fields current password, new password, and confirm password. However if you would register, you would see password, confirm password, and the captcha. Do you guys have an idea how to do that? Just wanna know that trick. Does it have something to do with the <!-- BEGIN username_something2x --> ?

if logged in then show this

if not logged in, then show that

 

pretty simple

What about the switcheroo. Maybe something like this.

 

if (logged_in) display the username

else display the input text box field

 

Correct?

[revraz]

Yep, same thing.  That's how I do my nav bars.

 

If logged in, show Logout.  If not logged in, show Login and Register options.

or

 

switch(logged_in) {

  case true:

    do true code;

    break

  case false:

    do false code;

    break;

  }

 

But the if is simpler for this.
