How do I use $url with an if statement

[ugakebet 4]

I need to check whether the current url = the url stored in a variable. How do i do this?

 

I have a variable where I can type in what ever address i wish to visit. But later on in the script, I have to verify this address, so how can i use the $url with an = sign.

 

U kno,

 

IF $url = #myvariable THEN
