Hi list.
Basically, I'm still learning new things about php and I was wondering if
things inside an if statement get 'looked at' by a script if the condition
is false.
For example, would this mysql query get executed if $number = 0 ?

If ($number == 1) {
    mysql_query($blah)
}

I know that's not really valid php, but hope it gets my point across. I was
just wondering from an optimisation perspective, as I don't want sql
commands being executed when they don't need to be (unnecessary server
usage).
Thanks in advance for your responses.
Alex.

Stuff inside an if statement will be compiled (So it has to be free of syntax errors and such), but it won't be executed unless the condition is true.
