I'm pretty new to PHP. I have done a few pages of code, and I'm now starting to get my head round it. However, I've looked on php.net and can't find the right syntax for an 'AND' or and 'OR' statement, a bit like in SQL. Is there such a thing? Here is the context I want to use it in. $areab = ($_POST['county']); if ($areab == "Cambridgeshire") {echo "E Anglia";} else {echo "";} This is going to be part of a much more complex bit of code, but |I am using the echo to test to see if this state ment works. Which is does. But what I want to do is $areab = ($_POST['county']); if ($areab == ("Cambridgeshire") OR ("Suffolk") OR ("Norfolk") {echo "E Anglia";} else {echo "";} but this doesn't work, what is it that I should be doing?
