Can someone help me out I am going mad trying to do some IF coding.

I have written the following code, in an attempt to hide a table if the page is called from a url.

<?php if ($HTTP_GET_VARS["inputtype"] != "url" {?>

Dispite calling the page with the URL of page.php?inputtype=url the table is displayed every time.

Any ideas ?

Thanks in advance, Stpehen

Hi Stephen,

could you please, post the whole if() { ... } content. If your table HTML code is too big, just post the <table> ... </table>

That way, we can check how you did the IF.


Though, in the example you gave, it is normal that the code goes into the if statement if you call that page with a query strint like inputtype=url. If you don't want to show the table, then use the
if(<font color=red><b>!</b></font id=red>$HTTP_GET_VARS["inputtype"] != "url" {?&gt;

One question, though, do you want to hide that table if the request type is a GET and show it if the request type is a POST ?

Could you explain a little further what you really are trying to do, because maybe there is another way to do it ?
