I cant understand this code of php $_GET

Please explain this code. What does "status" and the rest of the code mean?

<?php if (isset($_GET["status"]) AND $_GET["status"] == "thanks" 
        <?php // if status=thanks in the query string, display an thank you message instead of the form ?>
        <?php if (isset($_GET["status"]) AND $_GET["status"] == "thanks") { ?>
            <p>Thanks for the email! I&rsquo;ll be in touch shortly!</p>
        <?php } else {

For example: you add ?status=thanks like 

http://yourdomain.com/index.php?status=thanks

it will show the <p>Thanks for the email! I&rsquo;ll be in touch shortly!</p>

if there is no status or the status is not thanks it will not show that comment.

Example:

create file named test.php put it in htdocs localhost

<?php if (isset($_GET["status"]) AND $_GET["status"] == "thanks") : ?>
      <p>Thanks for the email! I&rsquo;ll be in touch shortly!</p>
<?php endif; ?>

try to go to your http://localhost/test.php and http://localhost/test.php?status=thanks and http://localhost/test.php?status=you

check what will be happened?

The below code embedded the html and php codes, The use of below code is you can access both html tags and php values in same file.

<?php 

// if status=thanks in the query string, display an thank you message instead of the form 

?>

the above code, provide the php comment block, it give suggestion to developer.

<?php if (isset($_GET["status"]) AND $_GET["status"] == "thanks") { ?>

the above code used to get the value from url (using $_GET variable) (for example www.example.com/index.php?status=thanks) if the status is set in url and the value is 'thanks' means, html tag will run otherwise run the else part.

<p>Thanks for the email! I&rsquo;ll be in touch shortly!</p>

else part,

<?php } else { 
// do somethink..!!
}
