Make Function Equal To String In Conditional
I can usually figure something out, but I CANNOT figure this one out: This is a classified word ad script to count the words in a text area ($wrdad) and multiply it by the rate for how many times the ad will run in the newspaper. I know my code is messy and ameture, don't be too critical, but it works - everythign except one part. We have a 15 word minimum. I have this area commented out as //Problem Area/// in the code below.
In a nutshell, I want function wordcount($wordad) to be equal to 15 if there are fewer than 15 words in the $wordad textarea. It just seems to ignore the wordcount($wordad) == 15; in my conditional. Code:

More Than 1 Conditional In A Function
This is a great function I use to echo timestamps as "how long ago" timeframe. This function rounds up the time to the smallest hour, so that 2:55 echos "2 hours ago". The only conditional in this function is Code: if($difference != 1) $periods[$j].= "s"; and what it does is to add an "s" if the second, minute, hour... is not 1 (pluralization). I need now to add another conditional so that for anytime greater than 5 hours and less than 24 hours it will echo just the word "Today". I tried many possibilities without much success. Code:

So I echoed them before the comparison and both are "aaaa". But the if statement sais they are different. The code is big so il try to but only the relevant lines. Code:

Is It Possible To Make Your Own Function For Encryption?
I am sorry for bringing up *yet another* post about encryption, but I was just curious. Is there a way to make your own encryption function? I mean, that would make it more secure than anything, right? Since no one else would have that encryption key or whatever? Is there a way to look at the current encryption functions like MD5 or crypt? I know it's a lot more complicated than a=1 and b=2, but I think it'd be cool if I could come up with my own form of encryption (with the help of a professor, of course)!

When To Use 2 Equal Signs And When To Use 3
When I had these two lines in my code: if ($executed == "The command didn't exist") { $this->core->error("In CommandRenderAllActionsInAnArray we sought the command '$commandName' but ExteriorCommands could not find it. It returned the value: '$executed'.", "CommandRenderAllActionsInAnArray"); I was getting this on screen: # CommandRenderAllActionsInAnArray threw this error: In CommandRenderAllActionsInAnArray we sought the command 'checkToSeeIfThisIsTheFirstLogin' but ExteriorCommands could not find it. It returned the value: Ƈ'. But if I change the first line to this: if ($executed === "The command didn't exist") { then it works correctly. Why does this need 3 equal signs? Why doesn't 2 suffice? I've done string comparisons before and I've never had to use 3 equal signs before.

How Can One Variable Equal 2 Things?

I don't understand why this is... if anything, I would have thought testing if it == 1 would be a boolean true since the variable exists and is not NULL, but testing if == 1 returns FALSE.
