PHP Syntax Question

Hi,

How could I code this?

If the accounts are not equal to

<?php IF $_SESSION['_amember_user']['data']['account_name'] <> test, web, demo
echo "yes"
else echo ""
?>

Open in new window

Try this.

<?php
switch ($_SESSION['_amember_user']['data']['account_name']) {
case "test":
case "web":
case "demo":
    echo "yes";
    break;
default:
    echo "";
}
?>

Open in new window

Other possiblity would be to create an array containing test, web and demo and test whether the variable is part of this array.

Sorry, now I've noticed that I've put negation of your condition, the correct code is here:

<?php
switch ($_SESSION['_amember_user']['data']['account_name']) {
case "test":
case "web":
case "demo":
    echo "";
    break;
default:
    echo "yes";
}
?>

Open in new window

probably little easier to write

if (in_array($_SESSION['_amember_user']['data']['account_name'], array('test', 'web', 'demo'))
{...
