blagger Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Hi All My first post here. I have an oscommerce website and am trying to do the following www.deviltronics.com I am trying to do something on my site so that when a certain products category is selected the product listing will display a certain text just under the header title on that page. Each category needs a to show different text. So as example, category with id 100 would display 'woohoo' where I want it category with id 101 would display 'wow' where I want it category with id 102 would display 'whoosh' where I want it (those are just samples, I will actually include a paragraph or two. Right you may laugh at this, but I am just having a play around, but this is the code I have come and with (obviously it doesn't work): <?php if ($current_category_id == '116') = ('text' => ['Some Text'])) ; ?> Please tell me what it should be Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/97288-a-coding-question-using-the-if-command/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremysr Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I'd do it like this, if not using databases: $categories = array( 100 => 'woohoo', 101 => 'wow', 102 => 'whoosh' ); echo $categories[$current_category_id]; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/97288-a-coding-question-using-the-if-command/#findComment-497853 Share on other sites More sharing options...
phpretard Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 It looks like you're missing a "(" if (($current_category_id == '116') = ('text' => ['Some Text'])) ; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/97288-a-coding-question-using-the-if-command/#findComment-497857 Share on other sites More sharing options...
