if else not co-operating

[Anon]

Good day everyone,

I have alink that a user clicks:
<a href="display.php?server=2">

and in the php file it determines what server to show from the server value sent with the link.

code:
<?php if ($server == 1 ) { ?>
<td><SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="http://share1.serverspy.net/cgi-bin/ss.js?a=64.8.228.4:27015&g=hl"></SCRIPT></td>

<?php } if ( $server == 2 ) { ?>
<td><SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="http://share1.serverspy.net/cgi-bin/ss.js?a=66.28.23.87:27045&g=hl"></SCRIPT></td>

<?php } if ( $server == 3 ) { ?>
<td><SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="http://share1.serverspy.net/cgi-bin/ss.js?a=198.107.184.86:27015&g=hl"></SCRIPT></td>
<?php }

else
{ ?>
<td align="center" valign="top"><Font color="RED">
Please Select a server
<br>
from the top.</font>
</td>

<?php } ?>

The problem is that no matter what $server equals it always shows the else condition.
and help would be great.

Thanks

Just some debugging advice.

I'd tend to use switch and do some checks on server being passed. You need to tackle that before you worry about the if-else not working.

if (isset($server)) echo $server else echo "no server";
switch ($server){
case 1 { $serverip = '123.45.23.3'; break;}
case 2 { ...
}

if (isset($server))
print '<td><SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="http://share1.serverspy.net/cgi-bin/ss.js?a=$serverip"></SCRIPT></td>';
else
print '<td align="center" valign="top">
Please Select a server <br> from the top.</td>';
