@Victor
this is not a comparison it is assigning of value it will always be true
if($credit = ‘due’) => if($credit == ‘due’)

Man you guys should go to a programming course once and a while, are all designers that bad in programming? :)

$cooks is > ‘enough’ can work in a scripting language, but it will not work in a language like C ++ or Java different types if cooks was not prefixed with the $ sign for php. I guess the string will be evaluated to 0 so this expression will always be true if cooks!=0 which doesn’t make sense to begin with (to have 0 cooks)

But you can do $cooks>$enough – where $enough = some value ;)

Or you can go pro and write in JAVA

int cooks = 2;
int enough = 1
if(cooks>enough)
etc;)

Actually, comparing strings is possible so “$cooks > ‘enough’” does make some sense.

If you let $cooks = ‘enougi’, $cooks is > ‘enough’. That’s also why you can do things like

if(date(”Y-m-d”) > ‘2010-01-01′) { echo ‘It\’s 2010!’; }

A a, and bb > ba.
