in_array

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.0)

in_array -- Return TRUE if a value exists in an array

Description

bool in_array ( mixed needle, array haystack [, bool strict])

Searches haystack for needle and returns TRUE if it is found in the array, FALSE otherwise.

If the third parameter strict is set to TRUE then the in_array() function will also check the types of the needle in the haystack.

Note: If needle is a string, the comparison is done in a case-sensitive manner.

Note: In PHP versions before 4.2.0 needle was not allowed to be an array.
