A PHP switch statement is almost like an IF statement except it is good to use a switch statement when you want to compare many results on the same variable.
Example with integer.
<?php
switch ($i):
case 0:
echo "i = 0";
break;
case 1:
echo "i = 1";
break;
case 2:
echo "i = 2";
break;
default:
echo "i is not equal to 0, 1 or 2";
endswitch;
?> Example with a string.
<?php
switch ($i) {
case "eagle:
echo "i is eagle";
break;
case "hawk":
echo "i is hawk";
break;
case "blue jay":
echo "i is blue jay";
break;
}

There are over 700 functions available in php and below I will show you how to create you own function. Functions all start with the word function(). Here are some things to remember

$last_name = “Smith”;
$full_name= $first_name . ” ” . $last_name;

} // end your function
<?PHP echo fullname(Joe); ?> //Calling this function will display Joe Smith

So you want to separate your string using explode or join your string using implode in vb.net? Explode/implode are functions of the php environment and do not exist in asp.net therefore you must use the split() function to get your results for explode and join() for implode.
Split() Example
mystring = “hello;sir;how are you”;
Join() Example
Dim JoinArray(3)
JoinArray(0) = "Welcome"
JoinArray(1) = "to"
JoinArray(2) = "Web Infinite"
Dim strSentence as String
strSentence = join(JoinArray)
Result
strSentence would equal to “Welcome to Web Infinite”

Application_BeginRequest method of Global.asax file can be used to rewrite the URL of the current page. Following code snippet shows you how to achieve this goal.

<script runat=”server”>
Protected Sub Application_BeginRequest(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
‘This is for dynamic redirection without having to create a directory in the root folder. We

If Regex.IsMatch(Request.Url.AbsoluteUri, “404;”) ‘Get the url from browser address bar
Dim UrlSplit(), url as String
UrlSplit = Request.Url.AbsoluteUri.Split(”?404;”) ‘Split the url where the error occured in this case 404
url = replace(UrlSplit(1), “404;”, “”)
url = replace(url, “http://www.youraddress.com”, “”) ‘Replaces the youraddress.com address and puts nothing
‘Select Case to check where the page should be redirect too.
Select Case url
Case “/aboutmypage”
response.Redirect(”/aboutus”) ‘ Redirects to correct url.
Case “/yourprogram”

colorcombos.com
It is very important to choose the right web colors for your site. Last year when I was redeveloping the hwdsb.on.ca website, I did a lot of research on many sites. One site I used was called colorcombos.com. This site creates a scheme for you based on one color you choose. Simply put in a color name in the search box and you will be presented with many combos based on that color. Go ahead and give it at colorcombos.com.
