sessions ...kinda

[stew]

hey there guys...

im using sessions to construct a user sign up form, which is spread over 4 stages, to make sure that the previous pages was what it was supposed to be... i tried to make it such that the first thing to happen is if signup = '0', once the form has been submitted it would go on to if singup ='1'...
the basic layout is as follows:

start_session(); //called signup..
if($signup == '0') {

do stuff1
$singup++;
} elseif($signup == '1') {

do stuff2
$singup++;
} elseif($signup == '2') {

do stuff3
$singup++;
} elseif($signup == '3') {

do stuff4
$singup++;
} elseif($signup == '4') {

do stuff5
$singup++;
} 
session_register('signup');

question... would this script run all the way through and do stuffs 1 to 5 due to the presence of $signup++... if you understand that?!?

No, the use of the if statement is ordered. The first once it hits that matches criteria, it uses.

this will werk better and is easier to read:

switch ($signup)
    {
    case 1:
        // do stuff 1
        break;
    case 2:
        // do stuff 2
        break;
    case 3:
        // do stuff 3
        break;
    case 4:
        // do stuff 4
        break;
    case 5:
        // do stuff 5
        break;
    }
