PHP Statements and Beginning Loops - Else (Page 3 of 6 )
<html>
<body>
<?php
$your_answer = "Yes";
if ( $your_name == "Yes")
{
echo Now I am the both the Happiest and Fattest man alive!';
}
else
{
echo 'Jennifer Aniston is prettier than you!';
}
echo 'I'm Brad Pitt's cousin, Fat Pitt.';
?>
</body>

Several things to note about the above code: 1) Jennifer Aniston is not hotter than Angelina Jolie, unless Jennifer Aniston or her lawyer are reading this, in which case she is very hot and a great actress to boot 2) If the value in $your_answer is equal to Yes, then the following will print:
Now I am both the Happiest and Fattest man alive!
I'm Brad Pitt's cousin, Fat Pitt.
If the value in $your_answer had not been Yes, this would have printed:
Jennifer Aniston is prettier than you!
I'm Brad Pitt's cousin, Fat Pitt.
Note that either way the line: I'm Brad Pitt's cousin, Fat Pitt prints out. This is because that echo is placed outside of the IF...Else statement and prints regardless of whether the criteria is met.
