Javascript conditional statement

When you need to make program to make decisions, conditional statements are used. In javascript we have following conditional statements:


  •  if statement - use this statement to execute some code only if a specified condition is true
  • if...else statement - use this statement to execute some code if the condition is true and another code if the condition is false
  •  if...else if....else statement (nesting of if else)- use this statement to select one of many blocks of code to be executed
  • switch statement - use this statement to select one of many blocks of code to be executed

If Statement:

Executes the code if a specific code is true

Syntax:

if(condition)
{
code
}

Example:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Siple Javascript conditions</title>
</head>
<body>
<button onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button>
<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
function myFunction()
{
var x="";
var day=new Date().getDay();
if (day=="6")
  {
  x="Happy Weekend!";
  }
 document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML=x;
}
</script>
</body>
</html>

If...else Statement

Use if..else statement to execute some code if a condition is true and another code if the condition is false

Syntax:
if (condition)
  {
  code
  }
else
  {
  code
  }

Example:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

  x="Happy Weekend!";
  }
  else{
      x="Have a Good day";
  }

document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML=x;
}
</script>

</body>

MySQL Connection

Connection with MySQL Database Before accessing database, you must create a connection to the database Syntax: mysql_connect(servername,username,password); where, servername specifies the server to connect to.

Type Juggling and Type Casting

Type Juggling: PHP does not require (or support) explicit type definition in variable declaration; a variable's type is determined by the context in which the variable is used. That is to say, if a string value is assigned to variable $var, $var becomes a string. If an integer value is then assigned to $var, it becomes an integer.
