[RESOLVED] if /else > < in form help!

[bagdini]

I need have a form that asks for a dollar amount and if the amount input by user is less than a certain number, I need it to take them to a certain page (lessthan.html) and if the input amount is more than that number, to another page (morethan.html) (examples of course)

I have figured out how to create variables and post them to a php processor but I can't find info on having it direct to the appropriate page.

I am brand new at php

Thanks in advance!

if ($variable == '>'){
   header('location:big.html');
}else{
   header('Location:small.html');
}

Thanks so much, I literally just started learning php two days ago, forgive my ignorance...

I used the following code and it wants to ignore the first option and defaults to the last one every time.

I've read through various tutorials and it seems like everything is correct...

<?php
$mid = 200;
$quantity = $_POST['quantity'];

if ($quantity > $mid){
header('location:big.html');
}else{
header('location:small.html');
}

?>

Is it in my form or in the php where I'm missing something?

here's the exact page online:

Thanks again

In your form, you have a textbox named "Amount", yet you're usig $_POST['quantity'] in your script. Pick one or the other and it will work.

Also note that by commenting out the headers and turning on display_errors to debug the PHP script, you should see a warning about an undefined "quantity" index.

That worked! Thanks very much. I'm starting to get this stuff...
