Question

The code below is just a sample of the format I have

 isset($_GET['ids'])?$ids=$_GET['ids']:null;

 isset($_POST['idc'])?$idc=$_POST['idc']:null;

function ShowCart()

  {

   $que = "SELECT 

   FROM 
    cart 

   LEFT OUTER JOIN ...
       ON ...
   LEFT OUTER JOIN... ON... 


   WHERE ";
  $result = mysql_query($que);


while(){
  if (isset($ids)) { 
     display something
    for (){
      if(){
          } // end of if inside the for loop
        }// end of for loop
       }
  elseif($idc && $ids=null) {
           display something different
       }
  else{ 
       display nothing has passed 
      }
   }//end of while loop
}//end of showcart(); function

that’s the formatting above I wonder why the if and elseif are not getting the isset() as the if and elseif argument.

I have debug the through the whole code and the print_r of GET and POST has values through the whole code.

print_r($_POST);
print_r($_GET);

Well the code you’ve posted is sound, so it’s probably a problem with the variables getting to that script in the first place. Are you sure those variables are defined in the GET string?

Dump out the contents of it to make sure:

print_r($_GET);
