Actually you don't, and in this case he probably doesn't.

If he wants to use a switch case to execute a single statement on any of
multiple matches, he needs to use the appropriate combination of case and
break statements, as described and demonstrated at

http://www.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.switch.php

His biggest problem at the moment is that he doesn't understand that the
comparison that's being made is not the comparison that he thinks is
being made.

A secondary problem that he has had for a long time is that occasionally
he picks up on a piece of incorrect crap that he reads on the internet
such as "between every CASE you need BREAK;", latches on to it, and then
remains convinced that it is gospel writ by the almighty himself even
when he is told quite clearly that it is wrong.
