[code]<?php $brokerage = "{listing_field_ListingOfficeID_value}"; if ($brokerage != "999"){ echo "<p>foo</p>"; echo "brokerage=$brokerage"; } else { echo "<p>my broker</p>"; echo "brokerage=$brokerage"; } ?> [/code] I am trying to get it to work within an Open Realty template and {listing_field_ListingOfficeID_value} is one of the fields you can place on the page within the templating system. It appears to be parsing the PHP, but I can't ever get it to behave like I need it to. I've tried single & double quotes around the $brokerage assignment and comparison in the if statement. I've tried using == to compare instead of !=. Switching the comparison does switch which code is executed, but the statement never evaluates like I need it to. When it echoes the $brokerage variable to the page, it is always correct...but the comparison does not appear to be correct. What I am trying to get it to do is check the ListingOfficeID, and if it is not mine then it will display a logo denoting that it is listed by another broker. Any suggestions for what I am doing wrong?
