simple if statement help

[jasondavis]

Hi I have a code

<?=TotalItem($sln)?>

This returns a number, can someone give me the proper code to have an if statemnet where if the number is greater then 0 it will show the number and if it is 0 it won't display anything

<?php
$output = TotalItem($sln);
if($output)
{
   echo $output;
}
?>

Or, if you like one-liners:

<?php
echo (TotalItem($sln)) ? TotalItem($sln) : '';
?>

thanks for the response, could you show me how to make

<?php
echo (TotalItem($sln)) ? TotalItem($sln) : '';
?> 

show some text too, like if a number greater then 0 is returned then show "(4 Items)" then if 0 returned it would show nothing? thanks for the help

<?php
echo (TotalItem($sln)) ? "(".TotalItem($sln)." items)" : "";
?>
