PHP - MySQL Fail


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

My PHP code will only execute the first part of my code...

Code: <?php

session_start();

?>

<html>

<head>

<title> Create a Character</title>

<style type="text/css">

body{

background-color: #000;

font-family: Arial, Tahoma;

font-size: .78em;

}

fieldset{

padding: 10px;

margin: 10px;

border: 1px solid #57626B;

width: 70%;

float: left;

}

legend{

background-color: #6A8CA5;

border: 1px solid #000;

padding: 5px;

}

input{

font-style: italic;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;

}


#tester{

background-color: #333;

margin: 0 auto;

padding: 10px;

width: 70%;

height: 80%;

}

#stats{

float: left;

width: 25%;

font-style: italic;

color: #000;

padding: 5px;

border: 1px dashed #999;

}

</style>



</head>

<body>

<div id="tester">

</div>





</body>



</html>
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');




}
?>
