PHP IF ELSE statement

Trying to show some specific content on pages but when i use a second constant (Contact) it does not work… where am i going wrong?

If you write ‘CONTACT’, that’s not a constant, that’s just a string. Write CONTACT , make sure you have it defined

contact is the name of the breadcrumb?

In terms of the order of statement / format is this correct?

<?php if ($breadcrumb['text'] == 'ABOUT US' && 'CONTACT') { ?> Trying to show some specific content on pages but when i use a second constant (Contact) it does not work… where am i going wrong?

<?php 
    if ($breadcrumb['text'] == 'ABOUT US' && $breadcrumb['text'] ==  'CONTACT') {
?>

If you have more page names you want to check against just do a switch statement:

switch ($breadcrumb['text']) {
    case 'ABOUT US':
           // do something for this page
           break;
    case 'PORTFOLIO':
           // do something for this page
           break;
    case 'CONTACT':
           // do something for this page
           break;
}

Or if you want the same functionaliti for more pages do:

switch ($breadcrumb['text']) {
    case 'ABOUT US':
    case 'PORTFOLIO':
    case 'CONTACT':
           // do something for this page
           break;
}

thanks mate, really appreciate the info!

<?php if ($breadcrumb['text'] == 'ABOUT US' || $breadcrumb['text'] == 'CONTACT') { ?>

Also, if you are not trying to compare actual string but the constant, you should not use ‘CONTACT’ but only CONTACT .

The same goes for ABOUT US .

<?php if ($breadcrumb['text'] == 'ABOUT US' && $breadcrumb['text'] == 'CONTACT') { ?> this appears to return null on the contact page?

ram64 is right, you should use the OR statement, instead of &&, here is a useful links with PHP operators: http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_operators.asp

&& is not used correctly in your if statement, currently you are checking if $breadcrumb[‘text’] == is equal first with about us and then with contact, and if that is true, only then execute the if statement.
