| if condition in php syntax required [message #186341] |

I am a newbie with no knowledge of php. i have a register.php file with piece of code in ..... tag that asks for username password and other details. The country is selected automatically and the script is included in the register.php file. I dont know how to find which is the correct variable and how to write if statement. The line where the variable can be found is echo ''.$ctr['country'].'';
I want to check the country in the if statement and if the country belongs to "India", it should show the register.php file contents (between the tags, else just show a message that "We accept registration only from India"
Can someone give me the syntax how to write? I searched for it but was very confused in php tags and semicolons
example
if country = india
<div>
..
..
..
</div>
else
custom message
endif

Sorry to bother, i tried a lot however struggled to get the correct syntax. the country dropdown is working fine and it disabled coz user is not given a choice to select the country, it is picked up automatically. I wanted the custom message for a reason that I do not want users from other countries to register. even if i tell abroad country user not to register, I cannot stop them. I will get an entry in my database that i will need to delete.
I thought I would get some help here and hence I posted. once again... sorry to bother

You don't appear to be asking for help, you appear to be asking for someone to write it for
you. "Asking for help" consists of "this is what I want, here's what I tried, this is what
happened, how can I fix it?"
As Jerry already told you: we are not unpaid consultants.
