Stop controller at this point, run other method

In index of my Main.php controller I have something like this:

PHP Code:

$check = $this->Logier->check_address($url);

if( $check === 1 )
{
$this->show_page($url);
}
elseif( $check === 2 )
{
$this->show_post($url);
}
else
{
show_404();
}

Can't I do something like...

$check = $this->Logier->check_address($url);

[size=small][font=Monaco, Consolas, Courier, monospace]if( $check === 1 )[/font][/size]
[size=small][font=Monaco, Consolas, Courier, monospace]{
[/font][/size][size=small]$this->show_page($url);
break();[/size]
[size=small][font=Monaco, Consolas, Courier, monospace]}[/font][/size]
[size=small][font=Monaco, Consolas, Courier, monospace]if( $check === 2 )[/font][/size]
[size=small][font=Monaco, Consolas, Courier, monospace]{[/font][/size]
[size=small][font=Monaco, Consolas, Courier, monospace]$this->show_post($url);
[/font][/size]break();
[size=small][font=Monaco, Consolas, Courier, monospace]}[/font][/size]
show_404();

I mean, to break at this point I want in just executing this actual method.
So it executes show_post, then output and so on.

Let's assume $check === 1
It executes then show_page($url) method.
And nothing else in this index method. (So it doesn't check next if and doens't execute last command - show_404();) 


That's pretty much exactly the same as what you had, because you used if/else if/else. Break won't do anything for you, since you're not in a loop. If it makes you happy, use exit or die instead.

In some cases, switch is a better alternative:

PHP Code:

$check = $this->Logier->check_address($url);
switch ($check) {
 case 1 : 
    $this->show_page($url);
    break;
 case 2 :
    $this->show_post($url);
    break;
 default:
    show_404();
    die();
}
