elseif not working

[dkin]

i have no idea whats wrong with this code.

I am not getting a value returned no matter what I enter.

Advice?

if ($tba && $day == "")
{
$release = $quarter.'/'.$year2;
}
elseif ($tba && $quarter == "")
{
$release = $month.'/'.$day.'/'.$year;
}
elseif ($day && $quarter == "")
{
$release = $tba;
}

try with a space in between

else if

try also using an else at the end as a catch all

[dkin]

ok, so this is the updated script.

if ($tba && $day == "")
{
$release = $quarter.'/'.$year2;
}
else if ($tba && $quarter == "")
{
$release = $month.'/'.$day.'/'.$year;
}
else
{
$release = $tba;
}

But still I get nothing

what check are you actually running on $tba? Are you just checking if it is set? If so, why not do it explicitly.

also have you checked all the data you are feeding into it? Without knowing what your test case is it is very difficult to know what should be happening or what is misbehaving.

Hi dkin,
Did you forget to

echo $release;

no the working code looks like this

if ($tba == "" && $day == "")
{
$release = $quarter.'/'.$year2;
}
else if ($tba == "" && $quarter == "")
{
$release = $month.'/'.$day.'/'.$year;
}
else
{
$release = $tba;
}

echo $release;

Are all your variables populating as they should be? There is a reason that the statement isn`t working, so echo each variable before the statement to compare.

Also, do you have this statement in a function? Should the variables be global?

Just some thoughts.

everything is working fine, the code that I posted works perfectly for me.
