Hello,
I am learning PHP by creating a small project to play the Card game WAR. On the page I have the user click DRAW. The program than pulls a function from another PHP file that picks a random number from a deck and then uses that number within a SWITCH statement to assign to a name card such as 4C = four of clubs. I am able to two cards returned back to an array on my main page in display it. One for the computer and one for the user. Later I will write the code for who wins. The first draw is successful but a repeated draw does not seem to do anything. I have included the .php code. Any information or hints will be greatly appreciated with a virtual Guinness.
Thanks in advance.
