Also on the back of Salathe's mentioning of operator precedence, you could use the or to give you a different way of achieving the same thing. I can't say I've ever used it like this, but it's one to be aware of nonetheless.

php Code:

$szVar1 = $szVar2 or $szVar1 = 'Default';
var_dump($szVar1);

$szVar1 will equal "Default" if $szVar2 isn't set.
