Case Switch not working..

[NZ_Kiwis]

switch ($_SESSION['post']) {
	case 'NZ':
	$PostValue = "5.00";
		break;
	case 'AU':
	$PostValue = "13.00";
		break;	
}	

What could be wrong with this... I echo my Session and it shows either NZ or AU but will not echo the post value

There's nothing there to say that it should.

[scrupul0us]

switch ($_SESSION['post']) {
    case 'NZ':
    $PostValue = "5.00";
    echo $PostValue;
        break;
    case 'AU':
    $PostValue = "13.00";
    echo $PostValue;
        break;    

} 

also, you should NEVER directly use post or get vars from the browser without cleaning/stripping/testing them first

@ scrupul0us, perhaps you are confusing his $SESSION['POST'] variable with $POST[' var_name_here']? 😉

Yes for sure, these variables must be sanitized and handled with care.

@NZ Kiwi.. as weedpacket mentions.. there is nothing in your code that tells us where you get the value for $_SESSION['POST'].. so if we don't know where you get this value, how do we know if your switch / case statement is working or not? We need to know what gets stored into that session variable first. And it doesn't hurt to include a default in your switch statement..

switch ($_SESSION['post']) { 
    case 'NZ': 
    $PostValue = "5.00"; 
    echo $PostValue; 
        break; 
    case 'AU': 
    $PostValue = "13.00"; 
    echo $PostValue; 
        break;     

    default: echo 'Error: No POST value found...'; 
    break;
}
