Question

Can someone show me why this switch statement doesn’t output the same as the if statement?
And more important, how do I get them to output the same?

Switch

switch ($list_day) { 
        case $today : 
            $calender .= '<td class="today">';
        default : 
            $calender .= '<td>';
    }

If

if ($list_day == $today) {
        $calendar.= '<td class="today">';
    } else {
        $calendar.= '<td>';
    }

Answer 1

You have a typo:

switch ($list_day) { 
    case $today : 
        $calendar .= '<td class="today">';
        break;
    default : 
        $calendar .= '<td>';
}

As well as the break i previously submitted, you typed $calender instead of $calendar…
