<?php
    if ($firstVariable == $secondVariable)
    {
        echo "same";
    }
    else
    {
        echo "different";
    }
?>

<?php
$word = "google";
$word_1 = "google";
$word2 = "yahoo";


if($word, $word_1) == $word_1) { // First $word is the word that it is being checked if it matches $word_1 
   echo "<font color='green'>Same: Word = google </font>";
} else {

  echo "<font color='red'>Different</font>";
}


if($word2, $word) == $word) { 
   echo "<font color='green'>Same: Word = $word </font>";
} else {

  echo "<font color='red'>Different: word = $word you typed $word2</font>";
}


?>
