An error I get. :(

[David Coutts]

Parse error: parse error in /home/ernesto/public_html/forum/admin/user.php on line 166

And I went too line 166:

$options+=iif($showvbcode==1,SHOWVBCODE,0); <--- is there anything wrong there?

I'm no expert coder, but shouldn't 'iif' be 'if'?

[Velocd]

iif is vBulletin's custom function that acts just like the ternary statement.

PHP Code:

$foo = iif($bbuserinfo['userid'], 42, 0) 


Is the same as:

PHP Code:

$foo = $bbuserinfo['userid'] ? 42 : 0; 


That is the same as:

PHP Code:

if ($bbuserinfo['userid'])
{
    $foo = 42;
}
else
{
    $foo = 0;
} 


Why they made it, I don't know. They've probably mentioned it on vBulletin.com.

@David, post several lines above and below 166.

[Tony G]

Ah, I see. Thanks for clearing that up.

@Velo: yes, they explained it.
It was just to make the code more readable
