Hey guy. Im learning php, it seriously kicks…

I’m having a problem witht he switch() function though. It’s like it’s not recognizing the ‘default’ case. this is what i have…

$x = $\_GET[‘x’];  
switch($x) {  
case 1:  
echo “1”;  
break;  
case 2:  
echo “2”;  
break;  
case 3:  
echo “3”;  
break;  
default:  
echo “default”;  
}

but it gives me this error…

**Notice** : Undefined index: x in **c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\adcore emp\_site.php** on line **10**  
default

line 10 being -\>$x = $\_GET[‘x’];

anyone? thank,
