소개
As an added note to the guy below, in such a case, use the !== operator like this.
$nkey = array_search($needle, $haystack);
if ($nkey !== false) { ...
The !== and the === compare the "types". So, with this type of comparision, 0 is not the same as the FALSE returned by the array_search array when it can not find a match. :)
Quoted Text:
===================================
Be careful with stuff like
if ($nkey = array_search($needle, $haystack)) { ...
if the returned key is actually the key 0, then the if won't be executed
===================================
if
if문은 PHP를 포함해서 모든 언어에 있어서 가장 중요한 기능 중 하나이다. 이 제어문으로 각각 다른 코드에 대해 조건적인 수행을 가능케한다. if문의 기능은 C와 비슷하다:
if (expr)
statement
표현식에 관한 섹션에서 설명된것처럼 expr은 논리(Boolean)값으로 취급된다. expr이 TRUE와 같다면 PHP는 statement를 수행할것이고, FALSE라면 무시될것이다. 무슨값이 FALSE인지 알려면 '논리값으로 변환하기' 섹션을 참고한다.
다음 예는 $a가 $b보다 크다면 a는 b보다 크다를 출력할 것이다.
<?php
if ($a > $b)
echo "a는 b보다 크다";
?>
종종 하나 이상의 구문을 조건적으로 수행시켜야 하는 때가 있다. 물론 if절로 각 구문을 감싸줄 필요는 없다. 대신, 구문 그룹안에 몇개의 구문을 그룹화할 수 있다. 예를 들면, 이코드는 $a가 $b보다 크다면 a는 b보다 크다라고 출력할것이고, $a의 값을 $b로 지정하게 될것이다.
<?php
if ($a > $b) {
echo "a는 b보다 크다";
$b = $a;
}
?>
If문은 다른 if문안에 무한정으로 내포될수 있다. 이와 같은 기능은 프로그램의 여러부분을 조건적으로 수행하기 위한 유연성을 제공한다.

an interesting concept, using only double == ... but i'm executing php from the command line on an ubuntu server using php5 ... and if i use ==, the function fails, but if i use = the function works.
i try it with good and bad value pairs echoing "match" to the screen when they match (the executed line) and "match" will not happen with ==. only with =. neither one tosses an error, but the == NEVER shows a match and the = matches when the two strings being compared actually match. this is not something i was expecting after programming in several languages.
go figure.
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
if ($check = $output)
echo "match\n";
?>
obviously there's code to make them match or not match, but that code does not change. i JUST add/remove an = and the code works with =.

Although most programmers are aware of this already, if for whatever reason you need to 'break' out of an if() block (which, unlike switch() is not considered a looping structure) just wrap it in an appropriate looping structure, such as a do-while(false):
<?php
do if ($foo)
{
// Do something first...
// Shall we continue with this block, or exit now?
if ($abort_if_block) break;
// Continue doing something...
} while (false);
?>

If you need to do something when a function return FALSE and nothing when it return TRUE you can do it like that :
<?php
function call()
{
return FALSE;
}
if(call()==TRUE) // or if(call())
{
// nothing to do
}
else
{
// do something here
}
?>
You can also write it like this :
<?php
if(!call()==TRUE) // or if(!call())
{
// do something here
}
// here '!' will invert 'FALSE' (from call()) into 'TRUE'
?>
/!\ WARNING /!\
The '!' only work with booleans !
Check http://fr.php.net/manual/en/language.types.boolean.php to know if you can use '!'
If you want to compare two strings and use '!' be careful how you use it !!!!
<?php
$string1 = "cake";
$string2 = "foo";
if(!$string1==$string2)
{
echo "cake is a lie";
}
//this will ALWAYS fail without exception because '!' is applied to $string1 and not to '$string1==$string2'
//to work, you have to do like this
if(!($string1==$string2))
{
echo "cake is a lie";
}
//it will display 'cake is a lie' because ($string1==$string2) return FALSE and '!' will invert it into TRUE
?>
For array/float, it's the same !

This has got the better part of my last 2 hours, so I'm putting it here, maybe it will save someone some time.
I had a
if (function1() && function2())
statement. Before returning true or false, function1() and function2() had to output some text. The trick is that, if function1() returns false, function2() is not called at all. It seems I should have known that, but it slipped my mind.

@henryk (and everybody):
You should put your arguments in order by *least* likely to be true. That way if php is going to be able to quit checking, it will happen sooner rather than later, and your script will run (what amounts to unnoticeably) faster.
At least, that makes the most sense to me, but I don't claim omniscience.

You're referring to the ternary operator.

I think you made a mistake.
For maximum efficiency, assuming each expression requires the same amount of processing, the expression that is least likely to be true should come first for expressions connected by && (and). This will reduce the probability that later expressions will need to be evaluated.
The opposite is true for || (or). If the most likely expression comes first, then the probability of needing to evaluate later expressions is reduced.

You can do IF with this pattern :
<?php
$var = TRUE;
echo $var==TRUE ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE'; // get TRUE
echo $var==FALSE ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE'; // get FALSE
?>

When you use if command with many condidions like
if ( expr1 && expr2 && expr3 && etc. )
it is more effective to put expressions in special order
Firstly you should put that, which has the biggest
probability to occur.
This is because PHP checks each condition in order from left to right and it takes some time to check each condition.

re: #80305
Again useful for newbies:
if you need to compare a variable with a value, instead of doing
<?php
if ($foo == 3) bar();
?>
do
<?php
if (3 == $foo) bar();
?>
this way, if you forget a =, it will become
<?php
if (3 = $foo) bar();
?>
and PHP will report an error.

This is aimed at PHP beginners but many of us do this Ocasionally...
When writing an if statement that compares two values, remember not to use a single = statement.
eg:
<?php
if ($a = $b)
{
print("something");
}
?>
This will assign $a the value $b and output the statement.
To see if $a is exactly equal to $b (value not type) It should be:
<?php
if ($a == $b)
{
print("something");
}
?>
Simple stuff but it can cause havok deep in classes/functions etc...
