In general:

<?php

// Will evaluate to true if
// TransID is "",0,null,false or simply not set
if (!$_REQUEST["TransID"]) {

?>

not processed html

<?php

// User || for OR statement, && for AND statement
} else if ( ($_REQUEST["Auth"]=="Declined") || ($_REQUEST["Auth"]=="") ){

?>

declined html
<td><b><php echo $_REQUEST["TransID"] ?></b></td>
more html
<td><b><php echo $_REQUEST["RefNo"] ?></b></td>
more html
etc. ...

<?

} else {

<?php

approved transaction html + php fragments as above

?>

}

?>

===================

Note that you can get access to
the variables directly by doing:

extract($_REQUEST)

then you can do:

if ($Auth=="Declined") instead of ($_REQUEST["Auth"]=="Declined)
and echo $RefNo instead of echo $_REQUEST["RefNo"]

I have altered the logic slightly,
your last if statement seems wrong,
i.e. if Auth equals "Declined" then
Auth is <>"" ( !="" in php) and the
if statement evaluates to true.
