[RESOLVED] Is there an easier way to do this?

[benracer]

Hello,
I have this code that is inserted into an option tag in a form drop down.

<?php if($_SESSION['session_name'] == "1" && $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] == "/index.php"){ echo "selected='selected'"; } ?>

Is there a better way to do this as there are many options that have this code in.

The only difference in each option is the session_name is different.

Maybe a function?

Thanks
Ben

Sure, that would be a reasonable solution.

I am unsure on how to set this as a fuction, would it be possible for you to provide an example.

Thanks,

Here's an example:

<?php
function optionSelected($name) {
    if ($_SESSION[$name] == '1' && $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] == '/index.php') {
        return "selected='selected'";
    }
    return '';
}
?>

<?php echo optionSelected('session_name'); ?>
