Multiple If's, ElseIf's, & Else's

[jamesjmann]

Is it possible to add more than one elseif in an if, elseif, else statement?

 

Here's an example of what I'm talking about (I do realize this is not proper php syntax):

<?php
if (name was not entered in form) {
echo ("This user has not entered a name.");
} elseif (email was not entered in form) {
echo ("This user has not entered an email.");
} elseif (age was not entered in the form) {
echo ("This user has not entered their age.");
} else {
echo ("This user has entered all of their information.");
}
?>

You can add multi else if statements, like:

<?php
if (name was not entered in form) {
echo ("This user has not entered a name.");
} elseif (email was not entered in form) {
echo ("This user has not entered an email.");
} elseif (age was not entered in the form) {
echo ("This user has not entered their age.");
} elseif (email was not entered in form) {
echo ("This user has not entered an email.");
} elseif (age was not entered in the form) {
echo ("This user has not entered their age.");
} elseif (email was not entered in form) {
echo ("This user has not entered an email.");
} elseif (age was not entered in the form) {
echo ("This user has not entered their age.");
} else {
echo ("This user has entered all of their information.");
}
?>

 

An argument needs to start with an if statement, elseif statements are extra arguments, and else is false, which means none of the arguments passed true so the code that is presented is in the else statement.

Ok, thanks for the reply; I couldn't find the answer to this anywhere!
