I wrote a PHP script that the user decides who they want to send the email
to based on the selection from a "dropdown" box. The essential part of the
script that I'm having problems with is:
<?php
/* Pre-defined script variables. */
$eol = "\n";
$mailto = 'm*@mycorp.net' ;
$mailfrom = 'w********@myco rp.net';
$subject = 'Contact Us Request';
/* Initialize a clean array to replace $_POST with clean data */
$etype = $_POST['etype'];
$errmsg = 'etype-: '.$etype.' | Case value-: ';
/* Define the mailto address
switch ($etype) {
case 0:
$mailto = 's****@mycorp.n et';
$errmsg .= '0';
break;
case 1:
$mailto = 's******@mycorp .net';
$errmsg .= '1';
break;
case 2:
$mailto = 'w********@myco rp.net';
$errmsg .= '2';
break;
case 3:
$mailto = 'm*****@mycorp. net';
$errmsg .= '3';
break;
default:
$mailto = 'm*@mycorp.net' ;
$errmsg .= 'default';
}
..
..
builds an email and sends it to myself.
?>
The email shows up at the "me" address instead of the "myacct" address. The
problem is the email shows "etype-: 3 | Case value-: ". This indicates
that the switch didn't work at all. Can anyone tell me why?
Thanks,
Bill

Isn't it simpler to do:
$aMailTo = array('s****@my corp.net', 's******@mycorp .net',
'w********@myco rp.net', 'm*****@mycorp. net');
$mailTo = 'm*@mycorp.net' ; // default
if (array_key_exis ts($etype, $aMailTo))
$mailTo = $aMailTo[$etype];
$errmsg .= "$etype";
By the way, in your code above, you haven't closed off
the comment that starts on the Define the mailto address line.
Also, though it shouldn't make a difference in the switch
statement, the type of $etype is string.

Bill,
Try
case '0':
case '1':
etc
Or, when I know it's a numeric value, I use:
$etype= isset($_POST['etype']) ? intval($_POST['etype']) ? 0;

How stupid could I get. The missing "close comment" was the problem.
I tried the array but it seems the:
if (array_key_exis ts($etype, $aMailTo)) {
$mailTo = $aMailTo[$etype];
$errmsg .= "$etype"; }
....didn't work but:
$mailTo = $aMailTo[$etype];
....did. Go figure.
Thanks very much.

Hi,
I just wrote a function that has over 200 "cases" wrapped in a "switch"
statement. I'm wondering if there are performance issues in such
implementation. Do I need to optimize it some way?
In terms of generated machine code, how does hundreds of cases in a switch
differ from hundreds of if-elses? Do compilers or processors do any
optimization on such structured code? Do I need to worry about the
performance, usually?

Can switch statements be nested?
I've got a large routine that runs off of a switch statement.
If one of the switches in switch #1 is true, that enters switch statement #2.
Some of the statements in switch #2 enter a 3rd switch.
I don't receive any compile errors except whenever I attempt to add default
switches to switches 2 or 3.
