Hi Everyone,
Here's my problem: I'd like to make the printing of some text dependent on
whether or not a variable is null. In the following example, when $row[1]
is null, what gets printed on the page is "Email: ". I'd like the
script to not print "Email:" if row[1] is null.
It looks like I should be using is_null(), but I'm not sure how to use it,
especially since all of this is embedded in a print statement.
while ($row = mysql_fetch_row ($result))
{
print ("\t<tr bgcolor=\"#ff9900\">\n\t\t<th>$row[0]</th>\n</tr>\n\t<tr
class=\"default\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n\t\t<td><p>$row[10]</p><p>Email: <a
href=\"mailto:$row[1]\">$row[1]</a><br />Phone: $row[2]</p>\n\n<p>Address:
$row[3]<br />$row[4]<br />$row[5] $row[6] $row[7]</p> <p>URL: <a
href=\"$row[8]\" target=\"_blank\">$row[8]</a></p></td></tr>");
}
Instead of just printing Email: $row[1], I'd like to test whether it's null
first--maybe something like this?
if (is_null($row[1])) print " " else print ("Email: $row[0]")
but can I put that line inside of another print statement? if so, do I have
to escape the quotation marks? Please forgive my confusion--I'm new to
programming in general and PHP in particular.
Thanks in advance for your help.
best,
Matt
