PHP If statement comparing an text input with a 2D array?

1 Views

I need to make a task where it compares an array value with an inputted text value.

For the array, the code is this:

<div class="wpsc-quantity-discounts">
        <table>
            <thead>
                <tr>
                    <th class="qty" colspan="2">Quantity:</th>
                    <th class="curr"><span class="hidden">Currency:<span></th>
                    <th class="price">Price:</th>
                </tr>
            </thead>
            <tbody>
                                                <tr>
                                <td class="remove"><a href="#" class="remove_line dashicons dashicons-dismiss"></a></td>
                                <td class="qty">
                                    <input type="text" size="5" value="500"/*this value*/ name="table_rate_price[quantity][]" />
                                    +                                   </td>
                                <td class="curr">USD $</td>
                                <td><input class="newCurrPrice text" value="0.48" name="table_rate_price[table_price][]" /></td>

It already contains the variables I need. I need to compare the first column with an inputted text from my single product page. 

                            <?php if(wpsc_has_multi_adding()): ?>
                            <fieldset><legend style="float:left;"><?php _e('Quantity', 'wpsc'); ?>: &nbsp;</legend>
                            <div class="wpsc_quantity_update">
                            <input type="text" id="wpsc_quantity_update_<?php echo wpsc_the_product_id(); ?>" name="wpsc_quantity_update" size="2" value="500"/*This value*/ />
                            <input type="hidden" name="key" value="<?php echo wpsc_the_cart_item_key(); ?>"/>
                            <input type="hidden" name="wpsc_update_quantity" value="true" />
                            </div><!--close wpsc_quantity_update-->
                            </fieldset>

I need to make an if statement where if the inputted text is less than the first column’s array, it will return false. If anybody has a suggestion that’d be awesome. I’m still kind of a noob in php so be easy :p. Thanks.

This is the code that I have now. 

<fieldset><legend style="float:left;"><?php _e('Quantity', 'wpsc'); ?>: &nbsp;</legend>
							<div class="wpsc_quantity_update">
							<input type="text" id="wpsc_quantity_update_<?php echo wpsc_the_product_id(); ?>" name="wpsc_quantity_update" size="2" value="500" />
							<input type="hidden" name="key" value="<?php echo wpsc_the_cart_item_key(); ?>"/>
							
                            </div><!--close wpsc_quantity_update-->
                            
                            <php? if ( table_rate_price[1][0] > wpsc_quantity_update(value)): />
 							<return <input type="hidden" name="wpsc_update_quantity" value="false" />
					<?php else: ?>
						return <input type="hidden" name="wpsc_update_quantity" value="true" />; 
                            </fieldset>

  1. Check documentation for in_array I believe that’s what you are looking for.

    Here is a snippet to get you started:

    <?php
$os = array("Mac", "NT", "Irix", "Linux");
if (in_array("Irix", $os)) {
    echo "Got Irix";
}
if (in_array("mac", $os)) {
    echo "Got mac";
}
?>

  2. Looks like table_rate_price[1][] should be table_rate_price[1][0]? Can’t tell without seeing how that array looks, do a print_r($table_rate_price) and show us the results.

    I would cast value to an int or float before the comparison since all post data will be String. I’m assuming wpsc_quantity_update() returns the $_POST[‘wpsc_quantity_update’] value.

    floatval() * decimals like 0.48, 3.14, …

    intval * whole numbers 1, 2, 3 …

    if ( table_rate_price[1][0] < floatval(wpsc_quantity_update())) {
  return false;
}
return true;
