switch() goes crazy

[phlow]

what's wrong with this switch:

switch($action)
{
case "Welcome":
$E="Welcome";
break;

case "News":
	$E="News";
	break;

case "Orga" || "Offizielles" || "Inoffizielles" || "Vorfeste" || "Treppenfest" || "Abizeitung" || "Homepage" || "Motto" || "Kleidung" || "Denkmal" || "Sponsoren" || "Band":
	$E="Komitees";
	break;

case "Allgemein" || "Was geht" || "Motto" || "Kleidung" || "Post":
	$E="Forum";
	break;

case "Gesamtliste" || "Suche" || "Profil editieren":
	$E="Stufen-Datenbank";
	break;

case "Umfrage" || "Bericht posten" || "Kommentar posten" || "Awards vorschlagen":
	$E="Abizeitung";
	break;
default:
	$E="ERROR!";

}

It only works for the cases "News", "Welcome" and ("Gesamtliste" || "Suche" || "Profil editieren")

This prob drives me crazy

I don't think you can use OR logic in the case statement. You've got to do it like this:

case "Orga":
case "Offizielles":
case "Inoffizielles":
case "Vorfeste":
case "Treppenfest":
case "Abizeitung":
case "Homepage":
case "Motto":
case "Kleidung":
case "Denkmal":
case "Sponsoren":
case "Band":
$E="Komitees";
break;

I think that will do what you're wanting (i.e all of the cases above will drop through to the "Band" case).
