    Re: if statement in menulist

    but, where is the ID variable? how is it defined? are you looping through an array and want to display this extra HTML on the fifth item..? or, what? all you've posted is HTML. I could simply give you code that would display some HTML if the "ID" is equal to 5, but ... that doesn't sound like it would be very helpful, because if you were doing a database request or something there's no real reason that you wouldn't know what an IF statement looks like.. right?

    "the code":
    PHP Code:
    <?php if($id == 5){ ?>
      <li><a href="blah">Search</a></li>
    <?php ?>
    but, like I stated earlier, if $id is never defined then this won't do anything.

    help us out by posting the rest of your code or at least giving a more detailed explanation of what you're looking for.
