I need to send a variable to a php script from html and then have the script output somthing based on what the variable was. I found some code that looks like this:

<?php
if ($var="001") $output="<b>a!</b><br>";
if ($var="002") $output="<b>b!</b><br>";
if ($var="003") $output="<b>c!</b><br>";

print "$output"
?>

But it doesn't work...it just prints the last $output (c!)

Please help ASAP!

Cheers
Chris

<?
if ($var == "001") { $output="a!";
} elseif ($var == "002") { $output="b!";
} elseif ($var == "003") { $output="c!"; }
print "<b>$output</b><br>";
?>

We could take this further talking about quotes and alpha/numeric variables but I used the sample you provided.
