I’m writing a semi complicated (to me!) piece of code that will take input from a user (Form), and depending on what had been entered, do something with it.

I’d like to put it all in a single page of code.

So I thought I should use a switch statement(s) rather than a long complicated line of IF ELSE type statements.

Does that sound like a good idea?

Additionally….

If the php code gets pretty long, is it OK to put all this into a single page? 
Or will the page become slow to load?  
(Worded another way---If the conditional returns a FALSE, does it skip to the next conditional, or read every line anyway?)

Thank you!
