Subject: [PHP] if inside an echo.


I am outputting a selectbox and want to do the follwoing. How can I add the IF statement inside the the echo?


for ($value = 0; $value <= 2000; $value += 100) {

echo "<option value=\"$value\" if ($min_rent==$value) {echo selected="selected" }> $value</option>";

}


Just split it into multiple echo statments:

for ($value = 0; $value <= 2000; $value += 100) {

echo "<option value=\"$value\"";
if ($min_rent==$value)
echo " selected=\"selected\"";
echo "> $value</option>";

}

Edward

Or use the ternary operator:

for ($value = 0; $value <= 2000; $value += 100) {
echo '<option value="'.$value.'" '.($min_rent==$value ? 'selected="selected"' : '').' > '.$value.'</option>';
}
.
