Hello
No doubt there is a better way of expressing this?!
Pointers please ...
if ($value > 0 && $value < 11) {
$section_addressed = '1';
}
if ($value > 10 && $value < 21) {
$section_addressed = '2';
}
if ($value > 20 && $value < 31) {
$section_addressed = '3';
}
if ($value > 30 && $value < 41) {
$section_addressed = '4';
}
if ($value > 40 && $value < 51) {
$section_addressed = '5';
}
if ($value > 50 && $value < 61) {
$section_addressed = '6';
}
if ($value > 60 && $value < 71) {
$section_addressed = '7';
}
if ($value > 70 && $value < 81) {
$section_addressed = '8';
}
if ($value > 80 && $value < 91) {
$section_addressed = '9';
}
if ($value > 90 && $value < 101) {
$section_addressed = '10';
}
if ($value > 100 && $value < 111) {
$section_addressed = '11';
}
if ($value > 110 && $value < 121) {
$section_addressed = '12';
}
Cheers
Geoff

if ($value > 0 && $value < 121) {
$section_addressed = floor (($value - 1) / 10) + 1;
}
