Question

i have following problem:

i look for a variable to work with that comes from a fetch_object. the table has a standard value that will be changed by a if clause. in the further code i need to handle two status properties so that i need to know how can i get one or more variables from a switch clause?

i need something like:

$row = $query->fetch_object();
    $Status = $row->Status;
        $1 = switch($Status){case "1"};
        $2 = switch($Status){case "2"};

or is there another way to realize that? it seems like switch is the onliest way to catch the status, isn’t it? thanks alot.

Answer 1

$row = $query->fetch_object();
$Status = $row->Status;

switch($Status){
    case "1" : 
        // do something for case "1"
        break;
    case "2" :
        // do something for case "2"
        break;
    default : 
        // 
}

could this help you?

modified code:

$row = $query->fetch_object();
$Status = $row->Status;

if($query->num_rows){
    if($Status == "S1"){
        // status 1
    }
    else {
        // status 2
    }
}
