php AND within the if else

Question

I've an if else statement.

IF the recordset is not empty AND if a specific record is greater then 0 then show.....

<?php if ($totalRows_bigimgRec > 0) {  ?>
<?php
if(( $row_bigimgRec['disable_big_image'] ) > (0)) {
?>

The above is the code I have. Yes it came from dreamweaver, but I want to have it as one statement.

I have tried hundreds of different ways to no avail.

<?php if ($totalRows_bigimgRec > 0) {  
AND
if(( $row_bigimgRec['disable_big_image'] ) > (0)) {
?>

the 2 conditions have to be met before I can show some thing other further down my page.

Can anyone advise as to how to get this working, I have read many manuals but am new to php and cannot get my head around.

Check your brackets if (($totalRows_bigimgRec > 0) AND ($row_bigimgRec['disable_big_image'] > 0)) { — Mark Baker

It's better to give both of them half a car, @Seemore - much less likely to have an accident! — halfer

something like this..

 if ($totalRows_bigimgRec > 0 && $row_bigimgRec['disable_big_image'] > 0) {
      // do something
 }

While this code snippet may solve the question, including an explanation really helps to improve the quality of your post. Remember that you are answering the question for readers in the future, and those people might not know the reasons for your code suggestion.

As you can see at http://php.net/manual/en/language.operators.logical.php

You should $c = ($a and $b);

So within your IF-statement you want both to be TRUE, hence:

<?php if( ($totalRows_bigimgRec > 0) and ($row_bigimgRec['disable_big_image']  > 0 )) { 
//code to be run when the condition is met
} ?>

Alternatively you can use && instead of AND

You can use && where IF Statement can check both conditions are TRUE

<?php
    if (!empty($totalRows_bigimgRec) && $row_bigimgRec['disable_big_image']  > 0){
        // rest of your code
    }
?>

I saw some extra parenthesis as well which PHP will warning with syntax error. Remove then too.

Hope it helps you.

<?php if(!empty($whatever) && $othervariable > 0){ ?>write html <?php } ?>
