Like superfun said

by doing $gender = "male" You gave $gender the text "male"

 

[andrew951]

no he didnt
in the if, he said if $gender == 'male'
that means if anywhere b4 the script it ACTUALLY SAID $gender = "male"; then it would work.
otherwise it would go to sh** = 0

Lol.. Your both mistaken.
G_Network,
SuperFun didn't give any explanation as to why the first script didn't work. But you're right, that's what happens when you set it up like that.

Andrew, You're a cat with attitude
But G_Network didn't mean what you thought he did. But your facts are right too :tongue:

script said $gender = 'male' which basicly does nothing becouse its $gender = 'male'; so i fixed the problem on the first place?

Really you should learn to properly indent;

<?php
if($gender == 'male')
{
	$**** = '5';
}
else
{
	$**** = '0';
}
?>

what's the difference? :?: works on both ways

It does, but what EliteGM shows, is a different way of writing code, which is considered to be better readable and used more widely. Good indentation helps you keeping the code clean.

 

[Superfun]

Its just the way how you like it, Both ways can be used of course.

No one wants to work with someone who writes ugly. It's easier to learn to write the code properly now than later, when you work with someone on a bigger project.
