Conditional Statements And Loops
Not long ago I was asked to give PHP lections to some private IT school. I'm on second lection now, and will be teaching my :) students conditional statements (if..else and switch) and loops (while and for). That was my story, now the question. Can you give me an advise on some geeky use of those statements to stir up some enthusiasm in students.

Question On Conditional Statements
I'm a perl programmer and am trying to learn PHP. So far I have figured out most of the differences, but have not been able to find out how to do the following: When running through a loop, how can you test two separate conditions against the same $element of an array. For example, this is how I thought it would be done (similar to Perl), but it did not work: if (eregi("apple", $line) and (eregi("orange", $line) { do whatever; } Basically testing each line of an array to see if both the words "apple" and "orange" are present. Also, is there any equivalent to the following from Perl while running through a loop: next if (whatever conditions); last if (whatever conditions);

Avoiding Endless Conditional Statements
Here is my problem. I want to make a webapp that will basically take the work out of finding what tool works for what situation. There are 5 factors that go into tool selection. 1)Material Group, 2)Insert Radius, 3)Insert Type and Size, and 2 others that I can't remember off-hand. There are probably about 1000 different scenarios that I have to code for..(there are several blank table cells and it's not setup as you might imagine, there is a lot of overlapping), and I desperately want to avoid making a gigantic conditional statement. I'm afraid that I really have to provide a picture of what I'm doing here, so I will do that. Here is the link. You only see 3 of the 5 factors on this page, and the other 2 have to do with whether this table or one of many other tables (not pictured) will be used. So, now that I've confused everyone. That's my table. What's a good way to go about programming that sucker in so that people don't have to do all the "work" involved to figure out what tools they need. They should just be able to choose selections from 5 dropdown boxes and get one tool back. A tool is something like "10.655.600".

Switch My Case
I haven't used switch before, so I thought I'd give it a go. But I ran into some trouble. The case is like this: I have a search results page where, depending on the no of hits, different texts should be printed. Perfect for switch I thought, but I need to use a different range for each case. Some code: // connect and query code not included... $numrows=mysql_num_rows($result); switch ($numrows) { case $numrows==0: $traff='Do it again...' break; case $numrows==1: $traff='Great!!' break; case $numrows<=25: $traff='Should be here somewhere...' break; case $numrows<=50: $traff='a little too many...' break; case $numrows>51: $traff='Whoa!!!' break; default: $traff='OK!'} echo "$numrows $traff"; So I always know how many hits I get and this works except when I get no hits. The value of $numrows shows 0, but $traff shows 'Great!!'Why? Or am I doing this wrong?

Case Switch Best Practice
I don't know what to call what I want to do, so I'd appreciate suggestions for keywords so that I can study up on it. if it's easy your input of course. I want to have a table of contents plus 10 articles in one php file. Depending on which article link the visitor clicks on, the page will refresh and that section of the php code will show the appropriate article on the page. I've gotten as far as this has something to do with blah.php?article2. I've also found that case switch does this, but that looked very messy for something that seems so simple.

Switch Case Image Maps
Seems my switch case statement isn't working, and I can't see why it isn't. The App: The webapp I am making is a webpage that uses imagemaps as a menu system. The menu is basically a table with 6 columns and 5 rows. Each row is a seperate image. When a cell of the "table" is clicked, the options under that tables category are displayed as pictures. I did this by passing a variable and reloading the page when a hotspot on the image map is clicked. When the page reloads a switch case is used to display either a row with a cell selected, or the default unselected row. Below is the select case that will not work properly. The Map functions all work (they have been tested) and pass the variable. PHP Code: .....

PHP Conditional Include
I just set up a perl script that outputs a single html file. Works great, but I need to be able to customize that one file for different sections of the site. Specifically I need different navigation and heading on the page. I'm not a programmer, but this sounds like I want a conditional include to show what I want when I want, right? If so, can anyone give me any idea how to get started with something like this? I figured I'd try with PHP because it sounds easier than fooling with perl. Also, doesn't a conditional statement generally work from a variable or something else in the page that changes? If so, what do I do when the page stays the same and doesn't include variables?

Sessions + Conditional Include
I am having a little problem in trying to figure out why my session state is not expiring after I close the browser window. Having been used to the ASP way of doing things I am trying to get my head around this slightly different method of handling sessions in PHP.... What happens is that I log on to the site, do various things and then close it when I am finished. I return the next day to find that the 'logged in' menu is displayed first which shouldnt happen until you have logged in again. I assumed that the session was been stored as a cookie but wasnt been released after the session terminates by default, but found I was wrong when I deleted all my internet files and went back to the site.

Include Statements
I am currently using a perl script to process form data. I don't want to lose the functionality I have with this script but need to output the data to a mysql db. Someone mentioned that I should use includes to process the form with a php script. Can one form be processed by two scripts at the same time. If so is this a bad idea? It sounds like it would solve my problem if it would work. The problem is that I have done nothing more than setup a fre script that requires no coding.

Include Switch
I am trying to use the code to change pages from a menu link. It does accomplish that except link 1 will include page2 and page3 information. Page2 includes page3 information. Finally page3 only contains page3 information. I need each link to only display the called page information. What I am doing is I have a 3 column built. Index.php has includes for the header.php, left_menu.php, right_menu.php, footer.php, and the body.php I am creating a menu to different pages within the website and my goal is to have each link only change the content of body.php. So if I click on a link to page1, page1 content will load in the body area. Click on page2 and page2 content will load into the body area w/o the page1 content being there. hope this makes sense. If you know a better way to accomplish this with out the use of frames that could work as well. <html> <head> <title>My Page</title> </head> <body> <!-- Page Header --> <?php include("header.php"); ?> <!-- End Page Header --> <a href="index.php?page=page1">Click for page 1</a><br /> <a href="index.php?page=page2">Click for page 2</a><br /> <a href="index.php?page=page3">Click for page 3</a><br /><br /> <!-- Page Content --> <?php switch($_GET['page']){ case "page1": include("page3.php"); case "page2": include("page2.php"); case "page3": include("page1.php"); } ?> <!-- End Page Content --> </body> </html>

Include() In Echo Statements
I have a problem in that I have no clue on how to incorporate an include()statementinside an echo. The include is: PHP Code: include $inc . 'link.php' the echo statement where I want to include it is simliar to this: PHP Code: echo '<td>' . /* it goes in here */ . '</td>' Everytime I do this I get PHP errors when accessing the page. My alternative was to define a variable which contained the include statement and then just add the variable in the echo. Like this: PHP Code: $link = include $inc . 'link.php' echo '<td>' . $link . '</td>' However the strange thing is that the included file is parsed on the line that the variable is defined and not where the variable is placed (in the actual file the variable is defined outside the tables so the included content appears not where it should). How can I solve this?

Include() And Short Echo Statements
I seem to have some very strange behaviour from the include() command. Script 1 contains: include("http://www.myurl.com/dir/script2.php"); and script 2 contains: echo "12345678"; If I do that, I get the error message: Warning: main() [function.main]: stream does not support seeking in http://www.myurl.com/dir/script2.php on line 078l(,@¨Ê The garbage at the end seems pretty random except the first few chars relate to the end of the echo statement. However once I get to 14+ chars in the echo statement or if I reference the include via /home/login/public_html... it works fine. Is this a known thing with PHP or is it more likely the PHP is corrupted somewhere?

Problems W/ Using An Include Inside A Table

Some of our events are free, some are not. I built a separate page with the payment fields on it, and had hoped to include it on the registration form when the url passed a parameter of "?charge=yes". I had inserted an if statement in a cell in the table to call the include file. The if statement works. When my urls is used like above, the include file shows, but it actually shows up on top of my other form, making the page largely unreadable.

Classes And Var Declarations
I've read many places on the net that when using classes in PHP, all member variables must be declared via the 'var' keyword. I know that doing this creates all these variables when the object is first created. My question is what is the point of this and is it bad if I don't declare all my variables at the beginning? Right now when I have a variable I want to save in the object globally I just assign $this->variable whenever I need it. I am serializing/unserializing my object in $_SESSION between page calls. Everything is working fine, and this is actually better for me, because I do not want all my variables to be created at the start, but instead as I go based on different function results (I do not necessarily want every possible variable in my class to be set on each run). So to summarize, are there any problems with simply assigning $this->variable whenever I need, instead of explicitly declaring all variables with 'var' at the beginning of my class? I have found many sites telling me I have to declare them, but most don't explain why, and I have not had any luck finding any documentation on potential drawbacks with what I am doing.
