check input from textbox

hi all,
i have this piece of code to check the textbox input:

$selectedProdCode="LMQ";
if ($memberDataArray['eventDate']="FEBRUARY 28")   //changed from ttevents
 {
    $selectedProdCode="febevent";
         }

 elseif ($memberDataArray['eventDate']='ttevents')
 {
    $selectedProdCode="ttevents";
         }

PHP:

- with this i want to check:
if user types: FEBRUARY 28 in the box the system will select febevent

if user tyeps: ttevents in the box the system will select ttevents


somehow it doesn't work, it selects febevent all the time.

thanks!

 

I believe that php equal operator is == and not =.

Try correcting this as it is a common mistake ..

 

didn't work.

 

sorry it did not help ...

i am not a php coder (tried to help since it is a common mistake in other languages..)

Have you tried outputting the contents of $memberDataArray['eventDate'] to see what it has stored ?
