Question: Im having a problem with a php script. I want to make it work so when under 5 hits it shows a locked button and greater than 5 hits it shows a unlocked button.

```
<?
 if($hits < 5){
    ?>
   <div id="status-button-locked"></div>

    <?  
  }
  ?>

<?

 if($hits > 5){
    ?>
   <div id="status-button-unlocked"></div>

    <?  
  }
  ?>

```

I have tried the code above but it didn't work, when it is greater than 5 it just wont show anything.

Answer: 
It won't show anything, when 5 hits exactly. Try:

```
<?
 if($hits < 5){
    ?>
   <div id="status-button-locked"></div>
    <?  
  } else {
  ?>
   <div id="status-button-unlocked"></div>
  <?  
  }
  ?>

```
Like David said it now doesn't react when it hits exactly 5.

Try this:

```
<?php
  if($hits >= 5){  // this part happens if $hits is 5 or higher.
?>
   <div id="status-button-unlocked"></div>
<?php 
  } else {
?>
   <div id="status-button-locked"></div>    
<?php 
  } 
?>

```

this way you handle errors like when $hits is empty.
