Question

I am attempting to hide a div when a specific value is posted. I want to be able to echo the additional css in the style=”” of a div. I get the following error when I do so:

Fatal error: Function name must be a string in /home/bryantrx/public_html/wo/or/wo_add.php on line 185

Here is my code from line 185:

<div <?php if (!$_POST('JobTypeDDL') == "New Mobility"){echo "style='display:none;'";}?>>test</div>

If there is an alternative way of doing this please let me know.

Answer 1

$_POST is an associative array super global, not a function.

Wrong:

$_POST('JobTypeDDL')

Right:

$_POST['JobTypeDDL']

Note: I encourage you to read through the PHP types.
