Question

Please can someone convert the following to ternary for me?

if ($idd == 1521) {
return "Home<br /><img src=\"images/b-value.gif\" /><br />Best for Value";
}
else if ($idd == 1595) { 
return "Home<br /><img src=\"images/b-dload.gif\"/><br />Best for Downloads";
}
else if ($idd == 1522) {
return "Business<br /><img src=\"images/b-value.gif\" /><br />Best for Value";
}
else if ($idd == 1596) {
return "Business<br /><img src=\"images/b-dload.gif\"/><br />Best for Downloads";
}
else if ($idd == 1523) {
return "Voice Product<br /><img src=\"images/vstream200.gif\" /><br />4 Guaranteed Calls";
}
else if ($idd == 1524) {
return "Voice Product<br /><img src=\"images/vstream350.gif\" /><br />7 Guaranteed Calls";
}
else if ($idd == 1525) {
return "Voice Product<br /><img src=\"images/vstream700.gif\"/><br />14 Guaranteed Calls";
}
else
return "";

Thanks.

Ternary operator does not appear to be appropriate in your situation.
Why don’t you use simple mapping?

$map = array(
    1521 => array('Home', 'b-value.gif', 'Best for Value'),
    1595 => array('Home', 'b-dload.gif', 'Best for Downloads'),
    1522 => array('Business', 'b-value.gif', 'Best for Value'),
    // and so on
);
if (array_key_exists($idd, $map)) {
    $item = $map[$idd];
    echo "{$item[0]} <br/> <img src=\"{$item[1]}\"/> <br/> {$item[2]}";
}

Alternatively, you can pull the map from file or database.
