The part starts here...When it gets to the three elseif statements, they are the only things that won't execute. Everything else works. I don't get errors.
Code: <?php

if(!empty($_POST['cont'])){

$species = $_POST['species'];
include "db.php";

if(empty($_POST['name']) || empty($_POST['Species'])){

echo "<script>document.write('You must input a species and a name!'); setTimeout("window.location.reload()", 350);</script>";

}



if ($species== "Predator" || "Alien" || "Marine" && !empty($_POST['name'])){


mysql_query("INSERT INTO rpg (name, species, player) VALUES ('{$_POST['name']}' , '{$_POST['Species']}' , '{$_POST['player']}')")

or die(mysql_error());
}


elseif($species=="Predator"){

mysql_query("UPDATE rpg SET max_health=25, health=25, attack=25, defense=25, honor=20 WHERE player='{$_POST['player']}')");

}

elseif($species=="Alien"){

mysql_query("UPDATE rpg SET health=20, max_health=20, attack=20 , defense=20 , stealth=20 WHERE player='{$_POST['player']}");

}

elseif($species=="Marine"){

mysql_query("UPDATE rpg SET health=15, max_health=15 , attack=20 , defense=20 , melee=20 WHERE player='{$_POST['player']}");

}

else{

echo "Invalid Species. Try again!";

}
mysql_query("INSERT INTO bank (player , amount) VALUES('{$_SESSION['user_id']}' , 5)");



header('Location: statadd.php');




}
