  1. Following is an example for how to write an If..Else..If in php. In elseif condition loop controller looks for true condition ,once it got it will stop the execution after this point.
  2. If no condition is true then only else statement will give output for the program by default.

else if($a<$b){
echo "going into else if";;
}
elseif(){
echo "going into  second elseif";
}
else if():// compile error 
echo "will it be executed";

else{
echo "going into else";
