A coding question using the 'if' command

[blagger]

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

I'd do it like this, if not using databases:

 

$categories = array(
     100 => 'woohoo',
     101 => 'wow',
     102 => 'whoosh'
);

echo $categories[$current_category_id];

It looks like you're missing a "("

 

if (($current_category_id == '116') = ('text' => ['Some Text'])) ;

Jeremy, You are an absolute genius! It works 

 

I'm glad I googled PHP help and this place.

phpretard, that didn't work, but thanks for your help.

 

I was just guessing the code!
