this is what i have:

<?php if($row['id']!="9") echo "style=\"display:none\""; ?>

simple enough, it should place style="dsplay:none" when ‘id’ is anything but 9. this does the job well, but i wanted to include ‘id’ 8, 12 and 13 aswell. looked simple enough, just added the logical or like this:

<?php if($row['id']!="8||9||12||13") echo "style=\"display:none\""; ?>

but it does not function anymore, so it places style="dsplay:none" all the time.

i wanted to go the other way around and did this

<?php if($row['id']=="4||5||6||11") echo "style=\"display:none\""; ?>

but this time around style="dsplay:none"was never placed.
this brought me to the conclusion that there must be something wrong with the logical or. but what is it? please let me know, thanks!

    You want:

    if($row['id']!= 8 && $row['id'] != 9 && $row['id'] != 12)

    because the current way you are doing it is comparing the value of $row['id'] to the string value "8||9||12||13".

    Or you can do something like:

    if(in_array($row['id'], array(8, 9, 12)))

    to condense the condition.
