Simple if statement

[plasmahba]

Hi everybody!

Please, a little help with some basic stuff
I have a conditional but it is not working, it always shows the same result

<?php echo $row_result['sign']; ?>

$thesign = $row_result;

switch ($thesign)
{
  case $thesign = "Aries" : 
     echo " Hello";
     break;
  case $thesign ="Tauro" : 
     echo " Goodbye";
     break;

}

It always shows Hello and I don't know where I am wrong

Thanks for any help

There are a few small things.

I think you should try this, but I can not promise it works

<?php

echo $row_result['sign'];
echo '<br />';

switch($row_result['sign'])
{
case "Aries" :
    echo " Hello";
    break;
case "Tauro" :
    echo " Goodbye";
    break;
default : // if is something else
    echo 'not aries and not tauro';
}

?>

Thanks Halojoy it worked!

When I use swicth is it possible to combine two conditions?
For example:

echo $row_result['signA'];
echo $row_result['signB'];

switch($row_result['signA'] $row_result['signB'])
{
case "Aries, Tauro" :
    echo " Hello";
    break;
case "Aries, Piscis" :
    echo " Goodbye";
    break;
default : // if is something else
    echo 'nothing';
}

thanks

What i want to do is an app where I can check zodiac compatibilities. If you choose Aries and tauro you get an answer, if you get cancer- pisicis another, etc

I Found a way to do it!!🙂

<?php

echo $row_result['signoA'];echo '<br />';
echo $row_result['signoB'];
echo '<br />';

$signoA = $row_result['signoA'];
$signoB = $row_result['signoB'];

if ($signoA =='Aries' && $signoB =='Aries' ){
	echo "Aries and Aries";
	}
elseif ($signoA =='Aries' && $signoB =='Tauro' ){
	echo "Aries and Tauro";
	}
	else {
	echo "None;
	}


?> 

Cheeers!
