in reply to Re^3: Simple IF, IF, IF or ELSE
in thread Simple IF, IF, IF or ELSE

I'm not offended GrandFather, i'm a self taught idiot, hehe :) I'm here to benefit from others wisdom, and when the time is right (and i'm able) i'd enjoy passing that wisdom onwards.

I had to dash off to test a pint of beer in the pub, and after giving some careful thought as to why IF, IF, IF, ELSE would not work in the way i first put the code across, I came up with :

By using an IF statement, followed further IF statements brings AND into the equation, no ?

if(true){ do this } if(true){ do that } else{ do something else }

The first two IF's will return true and not 'do else' only if both IF's return true, maybe i'm wrong here, don't know, not yet have i read the suggested documentation, but i will do so shortly. No doubt there i will find my answer.

For too long i've used 'do stuff if(true)' and thats not the same thing, as i now know.

thanks for your patience,

Isaac.
