Message:

I want to get the value from variable in if else statement here and store the value in $mydata variable.
When I try to print it or use it in another place nothing appear, it look like nothing stored in there and I want to use it in another php block in the same file.
I also tried to make it in function and use it direct in the block I want but the same.

first block that have the value I need to:

<?php

    $mydata; //here when I give it a value directly it work so good but I don't need it like that



         if($t1) { 

                        //statement 

                         if(//check statement ){

    

                             $mydata = 'user1';

        

                         }else

                             // echo message ;

                       }

                       else if($t2){ 

                            //statement 

        

                            if(//check statement ){

        

        

                              $mydata = 'user2';

        

                          }

                          } else

                            // echo message ;

                     }

?>

Second php block :

if(// check statement ) {

         echo ' <form  action="file2.php" method="post">

             // input fields 

          <input type="hidden" name="table" value='.$mydata.'>

         <input  name="login" type="submit" value="submit"> ';

)

My Answer:
php
$mydata = "";

if ($condition) {
$mydata = "Value 1";
} else {
$mydata = "Value 2";
}


You can then use the `$mydata` variable in another PHP block in the same file like this:

php
echo $mydata;
