Help with switch

[lypse]

It can be done with switch??

        if (empty($_POST["login"]) && empty($_POST["password"]))
        {
            echo "<br><div class='error'>
            Please write your username and password!</div><br>";
        }else if (empty($_POST["login"])) {
            echo "<br><div class='error'>
            Please write your username!</div><br>";
        }else if (empty($_POST["password"])) {
            echo "<br><div class='error'>
            Please write your password!</div><br>";
        }else{
            echo "<br><div class='error'>
            The username and password don't match, please try again!</div><br>";
        }

You could probably contrive to put that into a switch(), though I don't think it would gain you anything, since each case would need to be an expression, e.g.:

switch(true) {
  case (empty($_POST["login"]) && empty($_POST["password"])) :
    // do stuff
    break;
  // etc.
}

switch(true) {
    case true:
        if (empty($_POST["login"]) && empty($_POST["password"]))
        {
            echo "<br><div class='error'>
            Please write your username and password!</div><br>";
        }else if (empty($_POST["login"])) {
            echo "<br><div class='error'>
            Please write your username!</div><br>";
        }else if (empty($_POST["password"])) {
            echo "<br><div class='error'>
            Please write your password!</div><br>";
        }else{
            echo "<br><div class='error'>
            The username and password don't match, please try again!</div><br>";
        }
}

thank u both, I think I'll leave it at that, as I see that the code length does not change much
