Question

I’m looking to add an if statement to display a title if something is in a variable but not 100% sure how to go about it.

My current coding shows:

<?php echo $quote->getmessage(); ?>

But I would like it to show a title and the content of the message if there is content in the variable. If there is nothing within the variable I don’t want to show anything.

IMHO it’s better to be as verbose as necessary so that the code is easily readable and can be extended without totally rewriting it:

<?php 
$message = $quote->getmessage();
if (!empty($message)) {
    echo "Title!";
    echo htmlspecialchars($message);
}
?>
