have you thought about usiing a switch statement that way all the if or else
if statements are not checked against?

ie
<?php
while (something())
{
    switch($option)
    {
        case $option1:
        break;

        case $option2:
        break;

        case $... etc
        break;
    }// end of
}


>   if ($option1)
>   { do_1(); }
>   elseif ($option2)
>   { do_2(); }
>   // ... continue for 10 or more options...
> }
> ?>
