You mean
if( $var == "duck" || $var == "goose" ..etc
A single equal sign is assignment, double is test for equality.
Check the string functions, you could try something like:
if ( strpos( "duckgoosehenchickenpeacock", $var ) != 0 ) {do something}
else {critter in $var not part of our set}
It all depends on what you want to do, and of course "duck ... cock" could
be a variable.
Have a look at switch case break as well.
