PHP if / if else statement not working as expected (Probably Simple) -

ok, trying if / else if statement doesn't act expect. trying check url address enters things. way have done crap not @ programming.

all if parts work except bit if (strpos($urlcheck, "http://") == false)

it supposed check if url has http:// in it. whether or doesn't still acts same way.

i tried forcing http:// url stripping of http:// or https://.

when echo variable ($urlcheck) , shows url http://.....so why doesn't code work? thanks

    $url = htmlspecialchars($_post["url"]);      $urlremovesarray = array('https//:', 'http//:');     $urlhttp = str_replace($urlremovesarray, "", $url);      $urlcheck = "http://" . $urlhttp;      $urlsearchcheck2 = 'property-profile/';      $urlsearchcheckdomain = "domain";       if (strpos($url, $urlsearchcheck2) !== false) {     echo "test 1";    }    else if (strpos($urlcheck, "http://") == false) {    echo "test 2";    echo $urlcheck;    }    else if (strpos($urlcheck, $urlsearchcheckdomain) == false) {     echo "test 3";    }    else if (strpos($urlcheck, $urlsearchcheckdomain) == true) {          continue1();    } 

update: still no solutions why doesn't work? have copy , pasted code page , still doesn't work.

use same !== false statement:

$urlcheck = 'http://www.google.com'; if (strpos($urlcheck, "http://") !== false) {    echo "test 2";    echo $urlcheck; }
