So the question is confusing I know. This is what I am wondering how to do.
I have the following if statement:
if(
(isset($_POST['billing_company']) && $_POST['billing_company'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_address']) && $_POST['billing_address'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_city']) && $_POST['billing_city'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_state']) && $_POST['billing_state'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_zip']) && $_POST['billing_zip'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_phone']) && $_POST['billing_phone'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_name']) && $_POST['location_name'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_address']) && $_POST['location_address'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_city']) && $_POST['location_city'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_state']) && $_POST['location_state'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_zip']) && $_POST['location_zip'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_phone']) && $_POST['location_phone'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_firstname']) && $_POST['user_firstname'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_lastname']) && $_POST['user_lastname'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_username']) && $_POST['user_username'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_email']) && $_POST['user_email'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_password']) && $_POST['user_password'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_mobile']) && $_POST['user_mobile'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_name']) && $_POST['payment_cc_name'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_number']) && $_POST['payment_cc_number'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_expo_month']) && $_POST['payment_cc_expo_month'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_expo_year']) && $_POST['payment_cc_expo_year'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_code']) && $_POST['payment_cc_code'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['terms']) && $_POST['terms'] != "")
){
However, based on some variables, I may no longer need any of the billing information. So I am wondering if I can do an IF inside the IF, so something like this:
if(
($billingRequired == 1){
(isset($_POST['billing_company']) && $_POST['billing_company'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_address']) && $_POST['billing_address'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_city']) && $_POST['billing_city'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_state']) && $_POST['billing_state'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_zip']) && $_POST['billing_zip'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_phone']) && $_POST['billing_phone'] != "") &&
}
(isset($_POST['location_name']) && $_POST['location_name'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_address']) && $_POST['location_address'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_city']) && $_POST['location_city'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_state']) && $_POST['location_state'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_zip']) && $_POST['location_zip'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_phone']) && $_POST['location_phone'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_firstname']) && $_POST['user_firstname'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_lastname']) && $_POST['user_lastname'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_username']) && $_POST['user_username'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_email']) && $_POST['user_email'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_password']) && $_POST['user_password'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_mobile']) && $_POST['user_mobile'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_name']) && $_POST['payment_cc_name'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_number']) && $_POST['payment_cc_number'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_expo_month']) && $_POST['payment_cc_expo_month'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_expo_year']) && $_POST['payment_cc_expo_year'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_code']) && $_POST['payment_cc_code'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['terms']) && $_POST['terms'] != "")
){
I'm pretty sure there isn't but wanted to check with people smarter than me. I know I can do some nesting in side the {}
but wanted to not have to check each variable inside a very deep nest.
Thanks,
Just add () around the section you want to combine and it will resolve to a simple boolean which can be included in your if statement
The logic here reads "if (billing is not required or billing fields are all filled out) and all the non-billing fields are filled out, then..."
if(
(($billingRequired != 1) || (
(isset($_POST['billing_company']) && $_POST['billing_company'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_address']) && $_POST['billing_address'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_city']) && $_POST['billing_city'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_state']) && $_POST['billing_state'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_zip']) && $_POST['billing_zip'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['billing_phone']) && $_POST['billing_phone'] != "")
))
&&
(
(isset($_POST['location_name']) && $_POST['location_name'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_address']) && $_POST['location_address'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_city']) && $_POST['location_city'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_state']) && $_POST['location_state'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_zip']) && $_POST['location_zip'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['location_phone']) && $_POST['location_phone'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_firstname']) && $_POST['user_firstname'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_lastname']) && $_POST['user_lastname'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_username']) && $_POST['user_username'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_email']) && $_POST['user_email'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_password']) && $_POST['user_password'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['user_mobile']) && $_POST['user_mobile'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_name']) && $_POST['payment_cc_name'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_number']) && $_POST['payment_cc_number'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_expo_month']) && $_POST['payment_cc_expo_month'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_expo_year']) && $_POST['payment_cc_expo_year'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['payment_cc_code']) && $_POST['payment_cc_code'] != "") &&
(isset($_POST['terms']) && $_POST['terms'] != "")
)
{
//statements
}
Although I suspect this could be done better within a loop, maybe it's personal preference, but I'd be happier with something like this
$billingRequiredFields = array('billing_company','billing_address','billing_city','billing_state','billing_zip','billing_phone','location_name','location_address','location_city','location_state','location_zip','location_phone','user_firstname','user_lastname','user_username','user_email','user_password','user_mobile','payment_cc_name','payment_cc_number','payment_cc_expo_month','payment_cc_expo_year','payment_cc_code','terms');
$billingNotRequiredFields = array('location_name','location_address','location_city','location_state','location_zip','location_phone','user_firstname','user_lastname','user_username','user_email','user_password','user_mobile','payment_cc_name','payment_cc_number','payment_cc_expo_month','payment_cc_expo_year','payment_cc_code','terms')
$requiredFields = ($billingRequired == 1) ? $billingRequiredFields : $billingNotRequiredFields;
$continue = true;
foreach($requiredFields as $field) {
if (!isset($_POST[$field]) || $_POST[$field] == '') {
$continue = false;
break;
}
}
if ($continue) {
// statements
}
better yet, don't put so many tests in the primary conditional, just make a function to test it, and then test for === true or === false
function validate_input($billingRequired=0){
$b_valid = true;
if( $billingRequired == 1 ){
if (!isset($_POST['billing_company']) || $_POST['billing_company'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['billing_address']) || $_POST['billing_address'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['billing_city']) || $_POST['billing_city'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['billing_state']) || $_POST['billing_state'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['billing_zip']) || $_POST['billing_zip'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['billing_phone']) || $_POST['billing_phone'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
}
if (!isset($_POST['location_name']) || $_POST['location_name'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['location_address']) || $_POST['location_address'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['location_city']) || $_POST['location_city'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['location_state']) || $_POST['location_state'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['location_zip']) || $_POST['location_zip'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['location_phone']) || $_POST['location_phone'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['user_firstname']) || $_POST['user_firstname'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['user_lastname']) || $_POST['user_lastname'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['user_username']) || $_POST['user_username'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['user_email']) || $_POST['user_email'] != "") == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['user_password']) || $_POST['user_password'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['user_mobile']) || $_POST['user_mobile'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['payment_cc_name']) || $_POST['payment_cc_name'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['payment_cc_number']) || $_POST['payment_cc_number'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['payment_cc_expo_month']) || $_POST['payment_cc_expo_month'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['payment_cc_expo_year']) || $_POST['payment_cc_expo_year'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['payment_cc_code']) || $_POST['payment_cc_code'] == ""){
$b_valid = false;
}
elseif (!isset($_POST['terms']) || $_POST['terms'] == "")
$b_valid = false;
}
return $b_valid;
}
now it's easy to modify / read etc. Because empty can be slightly ambiguous I find myself avoiding it as a rule, despite it's stylistic elegance.
To make this even cleaner, I'd probably write it like this:
function validate_input($billingRequired=0){
$b_valid = true;
$a_billing = array('billing_company','billing_address'...);
$a_main = array('billing_address','location_address'...);
if( $billingRequired == 1 ){
$a_main = array_merge($a_billing,$a_main);
}
foreach ($a_main as $test){
if (!isset($_POST[$test]) || trim($_POST[$test]) == "")
$b_valid = false;
break;
}
}
return $b_valid;
}
With the caveat that assumes empty values are "", which wouldn't generally be the case for select lists etc.
What I would do is create an array at the top of the script that contains a list of all the POSTed variables that are required, then I would just loop through them. Your code would be way smaller. and almost as concise....
//We NEED these fields for the script to work...
$requiredFields = array(
"fname",
"lname",
"phone",
"accredited",
"etc, etc"
);
//IF you require billing,
if($billingRequired){
// Define the billing fields that we expect to be POSTed...
$billingFields = array(
"billing_compnay",
"billing_address",
"etc, etc"
);
// Add the billing fields to the required fields
$requiredFields = array_merge($requiredFields, $billingFileds);
}
// Loop through required fields and check to see if they are all POSTed
foreach($requiredFields as $fieldName){
// IF a required field is not set...
if(empty($_POST[$fieldName])){
// Do stuff, call a function, show an error, etc.
break; // Or redirect, or exit after a JSON response, whatever. Just be sure to end the loop here for efficiency.
