Can't figure this one out...

[mrbaseball34]

I can not figure out why this thing won't work properly.

I am sending this URL String:
http://www.mysite.com/buildfile.php?division=austin&XMLFormat=1

here is how I'm handling the file:

if ($_GET["XMLFormat"] <> '') 
{
  $xmlformat = true;
} else {
  $xmlformat = false;
}

and a little later:

  foreach($austin as $k => $aust) {
      $aust["gamedate"] = date('l, M j', strtotime($aust["gamedate"]));
      $aust["home"] = preg_replace("|\([A-Z]\)|", "", $aust["home"]);
      $aust["visitor"] = preg_replace("|\([A-Z]\)|", "",$aust["visitor"]);
      if ($xmlformat) 
      {
        $js[] = "  new Array(\"".$aust["gamedate"]."\",\n".
                "            \"".$aust["home"]."\",\"".
                $aust["hscore"]."\",\"".
                $aust["hwins"]."\",\"".
                $aust["hloss"]."\",\"".
                $aust["hties"]."\",\n".
                "            \"".$aust["visitor"]."\",\"".
                $aust["vscore"]."\",\"".
                $aust["vwins"]."\",\"".
                $aust["vloss"]."\",\"".
                $aust["vties"]."\")";
      } else {
        $js = $js."\n\t<game>\n\t\t<gamedate>".$aust["gamedate"]."</gamedate>\n".
                "\t\t<home>".$aust["home"]."</home>\n".
                "\t\t<hscore>".$aust["hscore"]."<hscore>\n".
                "\t\t<hwins>".$aust["hwins"]."</hwins>\n".
                "\t\t<hlosses>".$aust["hloss"]."</hlosses>\n".
                "\t\t<hties>".$aust["hties"]."</hties>\n".
                "\t\t<visitor>".$aust["visitor"]."</visitor>\n".
                "\t\t<vscore>".$aust["vscore"]."</vscore>\n".
                "\t\t<vwins>".$aust["vwins"]."</vwins>\n".
                "\t\t<vlosses>".$aust["vloss"]."</vlosses>\n".
                "\t\t<vties>".$aust["vties"]."</vties>\n\t</game>";
      }
  }

  if ($xmlformat)
  {
    $js = "austin = new Array(\"Austin\",\n".implode(",\n\n", $js)."\n)";
    $fp = fopen("austin.js", "w");
  } else {
    $js = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"ISO-8859-1\" standalone=\"yes\"?>\n<austin>".$js."\n</austin>";
    $fp = fopen("austin.xml", "w");
  }
  fwrite($fp, $js);
  fclose($fp);
}    

No matter what I try, I can not get this thing to correctly build the
right file based on the XMLFormat variable. The above URL
produces the XML file using the code above

GET Values echoed:

Division: austin
GET["XMLFormat"]: 1
$xmlformat: 1

I've tried vaious things like

if !isset($xmlformat))
if (isset($xmlformat))
if ($xmlformat)
if ($xmlformat <> '1')

but still I either always get the js file or always get the XML file. It
does not take into consideration what the value of the
XMLFormat URI variable is.

Did you debug with [man]print_r/man?

print_r($_GET);
exit;

[mrbaseball34]

Yes, it returns the same values as:

echo "Division: ".$div."<br />";
echo "GET[[XMLFormat]: ".$_GET['XMLFormat']."<br />";

[dalecosp]

Have you tried

if ($xmlformat==1) {

Also, the only reason I answered was because the link you posted has been URLencoded, but are you sure the query string isn't being "messed up" somehow?

IIRC, [man]isset/man can give you some unexpected results under certain circumstances.

I'm just rambling :rolleyes:

Hope you can get it right.

[mrbaseball34]

It was a scoping issue; modified to this and it works as planned.

if ($_GET["XMLFormat"] == 1)
