If Statement problem

[fenrir]

I am fairly new to php and I am having a problem with an if statement. I tried what I saw on this site from other posts but can't seem to get it to work right. Here is my statement...

if ($cPath_new == '34')  {

$categories_string .= tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECK, $cPath_new);
$categories_string .= '">';
} else {
$categories_string .= tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, $cPath_new);
$categories_string .= '">';

}

When I get to the variable $cPath_new and it is 34 it doesn't do what I want it to do, which is basically redirect it to another link then the default one. I goes straight to the default page. Any help would be appreciated.

It "looks" correct, are you sure about "34" being passed? Is your uppercase/lowercase of $cPath_new correct? other than that, it appears correct....

heh by checking and going to answer your question I figured out what was wrong heh. It is passing the variable, but the variable is 'cPath=34' not just 34 heh. So you figured it out in a manner of speaking, was passing the variable, just not the one I was looking for heh. Thanks
