I have this right now to use a cookie value if exists otherwise use a default value:
$default_carat_min = "0.25";
if($_COOKIE["diamond-search_caratMin"])
{
$default_carat_min = $_COOKIE["diamond-search_caratMin"];
}
I am going to have to do this with a lot of variables, and its going to get really cluttered/ugly. So I am trying to come up with a cleaner way of writing this.
I tried:
$default_carat_min = $_COOKIE["diamond-search_caratMin"] | "0.25";
Which did not work.
I can do this:
$default_carat_min = $_COOKIE["diamond-search_caratMin"] ? $_COOKIE["diamond-search_caratMin"] : "0.25";
But I don't like how I have to repeat the $_COOKIE
twice. I am wondering if there is a way to write it something like my 2nd example?
