PHP if/else statement

Question

I\'m a complete newbie to PHP but found it can be very useful. How can I write the following statement in PHP:

If body ID = \"home\" then insert some html, e.g.

Answer 1

Personally I think that the best way to do that without refreshing and without having to set a variable (like $body or something like that) is to use a javascript code, this because "communications" between JS & PHP is a one-way communication.

otherwise you can build a form and then take the body.id value using $_GET function... It always depends on what you've to do after you now body.id value.

Hope this will be usefull & clear.
