Hi everyone, I am new to php. I am using a piece of code which is
testing if a certain variable is <=0. and the code is written as
follows:
$lc_align = 'center';
if ($listing['products_quant ity']<=0) {
$lc_text = tep_image_butto n('button_buy_n ow_na.gif',
IMAGE_BUTTON_BU Y_NOW_NA) . ' ';
} else {
$lc_text = '<a href="' . tep_href_link(b asename($PHP_SE LF),
tep_get_all_get _params(array(' action')) .
'action=buy_now &products_id =' . $listing['products_id']) . '">' .
tep_image_butto n('button_buy_n ow.gif', IMAGE_BUTTON_BU Y_NOW) .
'</a> ';
}
break;
}
The problem I am facing is that the this code returns all result to be
true ie. <=0 even though most of the variable are greater than 1. Is
the test wrong?
Or can I change the syntax and how do I do that
Any suggestion are welcomed.
Thanks 5 1859

Start *all* your scripts with
error_reporting (E_ALL);
ini_set('displa y_errors', '1');
This will make php report everything that may be wrong with your code.

Try
var_dump($listi ng['products_quant ity']);
This will tell you exactly what that variable holds.
Any value that php cannot convert to a numeric value is taken as 0
(zero) and, if that is your case, all comparisons will return true.

$listing['products_quant ity'] is only one variable in an array.
> if ($listing['products_quant ity']<=0) {
1. make sure $listing is an array:
is_array($listi ng);
2. make sure $listing has values:
!empty($listing );
3. double check the values to make sure they are not empty:
print_r($listin g);

First, start with the assumption that there's nothing wrong with PHP.
This leads you to the conclusion that most of the products_quanit y are <=
0. Which may mean that the listing array is getting initialized wrong, or
some other upstream problem.
You can prove this to yourself with a simple print statement in the loop.
Or, if the code is being run on a webserver or some other place that makes
print statements inconvenient, print something to a log file.
When in doubt, print it out.

HI everyone. Thanks for the suggestion. I printed put the
var_dump($listi ng['products_quant ity']) and it returned Null. And
this at least confirms that the piece of code is behaving properly.
I will be tracing the sql query and with your kind suggestions, I
think i should be ok to trace the errors.
Thanks you
Effendi

Hello,
I use Microsoft Visual C++ .NET (version 7.1.3088)
Sometimes (with big codes?) when I get a compile error and click on the error, the cursor is placed next to the wrong piece of code. The line number in the error message and that of the cursor do match but the real error is somewhere else.
The same I get when debugging my code, the piece of code the cursor is at is no way the code that is actually debugged.
This is very frustating!...
