does php use and & or ??

[svoec]

I'm coming over from the dark side (asp, and V😎 and am trying to do a simple if then statment...

I can't find this in the docs anywhere... here is the code that I can't get to work.

if ($myrow[year] >= $datetime[year] and $myrow[mon]>= $datetime[mon]) print "HI"

I can't find the "and" documented in php anywhere.. but all search engines known to man IGNORE the and in a search (even with quotes around it)

I did find || in a script on the net, but it apears to be a OR --

can someone help me out with this simple little thing, or do i need to re-write it as a nested if statment?

Thanks!!!

[echo]

and == &&

I have heard of the word conditions being turned off. It's best to use the non-word ones because they ALWAYS work, ie.

"and" is "&&"

"or" is "||"

So your line should read:

if ($myrow[year] >= $datetime[year] && $myrow[mon]>= $datetime[mon]) { print "HI"; }

(I added in brackets because I ALWAYS use them even if it's only one line, and don't forget to add your semi-colons to the end).

someone was ragging on me just the other day becuase I normally use the { } on EVERYTHING-- 🙂
