The above line is probably causing a problem. The values being compared
are probably being treated as constants, as they are not enclosed in
quotes. As you haven't declared the constants, there will be no match.
Try
if(($type == 'book') or ($type == 'weapon')){

Why stick with quotation marks?
echo "$option_text\n";

It's a problem, however, if you want to include a PHP variable in that echo
statement, if you're populating a SELECT menu with a loop, for instance;
$menu_options = array("A" => "Option 1", "B" => "Option 2", "C" => "Option
3");
foreach(array_keys($menu_options) as $option_value){
$option_text = $menu_options[$option_value];
echo '$option_text';
}
would just output
$option_text
$option_text
$option_text
which is probably not the desired output :) You need to use double quotes
for variable substitution. Unfortunately, if you want to maintain XHTML
compliance the tag attributes have to be double-quoted too...
echo "$option_text\n";
(Might as well add a "\n" at the end of the line for readability in the
browser's 'View Source' window!)

Re: [PHP] Re: Forms in PHP
Actually since everything is going to XML compliance you will not want to leave out the quotes since it is a very very structured language you could hang everything without your quotes :) Just because it works, doesn¹t mean it's the best way of doing it. Browsers try to parse html with the sloppiest coder in mind so that way they are really forgiving in code. So best practice.. Code like it's xhtml and you'll make everyone gasp and say what pretty html you have :) Rick "If you're going to be able to look back on something and laugh about it, you might as well laugh about it now." - Marie Osmond > From: Dave <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Fri, 12 Apr 2002 08:33:36 +0200 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [PHP] Re: Forms in PHP > > >> >> May I also suggest that you rewrite your echo statements as: >> >> echo 'Donate this item'; >> >> Vastly improves legibility. > > > or just > > echo "Donate this item"; > > is there any common use how it should be coded or does it really make no > difference to forget the ""? i'm thinking here of old version of the > php-parser or old webservers which could missunderstand the code. just > to improve compatibility for further projects... > > > > > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Well, I think to conform the XML standard, the atributtes must be enclosed with quotes. Best Regards.

You haven't given your submit button a name...

Thus this test fails and you get no output.
May I also suggest that you rewrite your echo statements as:
echo 'Donate this item';

Actually after the submit button is clicked it returns a blank page.
