Giriş
easy way to execute conditional html / javascript / css / other language code with php if else:
<?php if (condition): ?>
html code to run if condition is true
<?php else: ?>
html code to run if condition is false
<?php endif ?>
if
if oluşumu, PHP dahil olmak üzere birçok programlama dilindeki en önemli yapı taşlarından biri olup kod bölümlerinin koşullu olarak çalıştırılabilmelerini sağlar. PHP, C dilindekine benzer bir if yapısı sunar:
if (ifade)
deyim
İfadelerle ilgili bölümde de
anlatıldığı gibi, ifade kendi mantıksal
değeri üzerinden değerlendirilir. ifade'nin
sonucu TRUE ise, PHP deyim'i çalıştırır,
FALSE ise gözardı eder. Hangi değerlerin FALSE olarak
değerlendirildiği hakkında daha fazla bilgiyi boolean türüne
dönüşüm bölümünde bulabilirsiniz.
Aşağıdaki örnek, $a değeri $b
değerinden büyük olduğu takdirde a büyüktür b metnini
görüntüleyecektir:
<?php
if ($a > $b)
echo "a büyüktür b";
?>
Çoğunlukla birden çok deyimin koşullu olarak çalıştırılmasını
isteyeceksiniz. Elbette, her deyimi ayrı ayrı if
cümlecikleri içine almanıza gerek yoktur. Birden çok deyimi tek bir
deyim grubu içine toplayabilirsiniz. Örneğin, aşağıdaki kod
$a değeri $b değerinden büyük
olduğu takdirde a büyüktür b metnini görüntüleyecektir ve
sonrasında $a değişkeninin değerini
$b değişkenine atayacaktır:
<?php
if ($a > $b) {
echo "a büyüktür b";
$b = $a;
}
?>
Sonsuz sayıda if deyimi bir başka if deyiminin içine gömülebilir. Bu, uygulamanızın çeşitli bölümlerine koşullu deyimler uygulayabilmeniz için tam bir esneklik sağlar.

It seems that only numbers can be compared between them but actually an alphabet can be compare too. For example :
<?php
// Number comparison
$a="C";
$b="X";
if ($a<$b)
{
echo $a."is smaller than".$b;
}
// Result : C is smaller than X
?>

You can do IF with this pattern :
<?php
$var = TRUE;
echo $var==TRUE ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE'; // get TRUE
echo $var==FALSE ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE'; // get FALSE
?>

If you need to do something when a function return FALSE and nothing when it return TRUE you can do it like that :
<?php
function call()
{
return FALSE;
}
if(call()==TRUE) // or if(call())
{
// nothing to do
}
else
{
// do something here
}
?>
You can also write it like this :
<?php
if(!call()==TRUE) // or if(!call())
{
// do something here
}
// here '!' will invert 'FALSE' (from call()) into 'TRUE'
?>
/!\ WARNING /!\
The '!' only work with booleans !
Check http://fr.php.net/manual/en/language.types.boolean.php to know if you can use '!'
If you want to compare two strings and use '!' be careful how you use it !!!!
<?php
$string1 = "cake";
$string2 = "foo";
if(!$string1==$string2)
{
echo "cake is a lie";
}
//this will ALWAYS fail without exception because '!' is applied to $string1 and not to '$string1==$string2'
//to work, you have to do like this
if(!($string1==$string2))
{
echo "cake is a lie";
}
//it will display 'cake is a lie' because ($string1==$string2) return FALSE and '!' will invert it into TRUE
?>
For array/float, it's the same !

re: #80305
Again useful for newbies:
if you need to compare a variable with a value, instead of doing
<?php
if ($foo == 3) bar();
?>
do
<?php
if (3 == $foo) bar();
?>
this way, if you forget a =, it will become
<?php
if (3 = $foo) bar();
?>
and PHP will report an error.

When using if statements without the curly braces, remember than only one statement will be executed as part of that condition. If you want to place multiple statements you must use curly braces, and not just put them on the same line.
<?php
if (1==0) echo "Test 1."; echo "Test 2";
?>
Whereas some people would expect nothing to be displayed, this piece of code will show: "Test 2".

This has got the better part of my last 2 hours, so I'm putting it here, maybe it will save someone some time.
I had a
if (function1() && function2())
statement. Before returning true or false, function1() and function2() had to output some text. The trick is that, if function1() returns false, function2() is not called at all. It seems I should have known that, but it slipped my mind.

@henryk (and everybody):
You should put your arguments in order by *least* likely to be true. That way if php is going to be able to quit checking, it will happen sooner rather than later, and your script will run (what amounts to unnoticeably) faster.
At least, that makes the most sense to me, but I don't claim omniscience.

This is aimed at PHP beginners but many of us do this Ocasionally...
When writing an if statement that compares two values, remember not to use a single = statement.
eg:
<?php
if ($a = $b)
{
print("something");
}
?>
This will assign $a the value $b and output the statement.
To see if $a is exactly equal to $b (value not type) It should be:
<?php
if ($a == $b)
{
print("something");
}
?>
Simple stuff but it can cause havok deep in classes/functions etc...

As an added note to the guy below, in such a case, use the !== operator like this.
$nkey = array_search($needle, $haystack);
if ($nkey !== false) { ...
The !== and the === compare the "types". So, with this type of comparision, 0 is not the same as the FALSE returned by the array_search array when it can not find a match. :)
Quoted Text:
===================================
Be careful with stuff like
if ($nkey = array_search($needle, $haystack)) { ...
if the returned key is actually the key 0, then the if won't be executed

Note that safe type checking (using === and !== instead of == and !=) is in general somewhat faster. When you're using non-safe type checking and a conversion is really needed for checking, safe type checking is considerably faster.
===================================
Test (100,000,000 runs):
<?php
$start = microtime(true);
for($i = 0; $i < 100000000; $i++)
if(5 == 10) {}
$end = microtime(true);
echo "1: ".($end - $start)."<br />\n";
unset($start, $end);
$start = microtime(true);
for($i = 0; $i < 100000000; $i++)
if('foobar' == 10) {}
$end = microtime(true);
echo "2: ".($end - $start)."<br />\n";
unset($start, $end);
$start = microtime(true);
for($i = 0; $i < 100000000; $i++)
if(5 === 10) {}
$end = microtime(true);
echo "3: ".($end - $start)."<br />\n";
unset($start, $end);
$start = microtime(true);
for($i = 0; $i < 100000000; $i++)
if('foobar' === 10) {}
$end = microtime(true);
echo "4: ".($end - $start)."<br />\n";
unset($start, $end);
?>
===================================
Result (depending on hardware configuration):
1: 16.779544115067
2: 21.305675029755
3: 16.345532178879

An other way for controls is the ternary operator (see Comparison Operators) that can be used as follows:
<?php
$v = 1;
$r = (1 == $v) ? 'Yes' : 'No'; // $r is set to 'Yes'
$r = (3 == $v) ? 'Yes' : 'No'; // $r is set to 'No'
echo (1 == $v) ? 'Yes' : 'No'; // 'Yes' will be printed
// and since PHP 5.3
$v = 'My Value';
$r = ($v) ?: 'No Value'; // $r is set to 'My Value' because $v is evaluated to TRUE
$v = '';
echo ($v) ?: 'No Value'; // 'No Value' will be printed because $v is evaluated to FALSE
?>
Parentheses can be left out in all examples above.

You can have 'nested' if statements withing a single if statement, using additional parenthesis.
For example, instead of having:
<?php
if( $a == 1 || $a == 2 ) {
if( $b == 3 || $b == 4 ) {
if( $c == 5 || $ d == 6 ) {
//Do something here.
}
}
}
?>
You could just simply do this:
<?php
if( ($a==1 || $a==2) && ($b==3 || $b==4) && ($c==5 || $c==6) ) {
//do that something here.
}
?>
Hope this helps!

Although most programmers are aware of this already, if for whatever reason you need to 'break' out of an if() block (which, unlike switch() is not considered a looping structure) just wrap it in an appropriate looping structure, such as a do-while(false):
<?php
do if ($foo)
{
// Do something first...
// Shall we continue with this block, or exit now?
if ($abort_if_block) break;
// Continue doing something...
} while (false);
?>

You can use a simple if and echo structure :
$i==1 and print "i is 1"
is identical with
if ($i ==1)
echo "i is 1";

In addition to the traditional syntax for if (condition) action;
I am fond of the ternary operator that does the same thing, but with fewer words and code to type:
(condition ? action_if_true: action_if_false;)
example
(x > y? 'Passed the test' : 'Failed the test')

You're referring to the ternary operator.
