asp to php 1

[derwent]

I have had a site on an asp server for some time but now need to move it to php.

I`m not good with php, can someone point me in the right direction please?

I am using this

if request.querystring ("version") = "text" then
response.write "some html"
else
response.write "some html"
end if

is there a php equilavent?

thanks folks

<?php

if ($_GET['version'] == "text") 
{
  echo 'some html';
}
else
{
  echo 'some other html';
}
?>

thanks matey, may learn some php, will it be quick to learn seeing as I know asp?

PHP is a bit C like, lots of curly braces and stuff. I presume when you say asp you mean vbscript ? (as your example is). PHP doesn't have things like end if or then. The key is knowing how to program just mapping the standard concepts of loops, selection etc

That might help you a bit, until you learn enough PHP to convert everything by hand (which I highly recommend doing by hand, as it means cleaner code).
