How about:
$fruitarray = array("apples","oranges");
if (preg_match('/I love (' . join('|', $fruitarray) . ')/', $string))
...
I haven't tested it but it seems reasonable.

http://php.net/in_array ?

One more question. Is there any way to use this with part of a string?
Example:
function checkfruitlove($string){
$fruitarray = array("apples","oranges");
if($string == "I love ".in_array($fruitarray)."!"){
$return = "I do too!";
}else{
$return = "I don't!";
}
return $return;
}
$answer = chechfruitlove("I love apples!"); //returns "I do too!"
$answer = chechfruitlove("I love oranges!"); //returns "I do too!"
$answer = chechfruitlove("I love pears!"); //returns "I don't!"

[PHP] Array wildcard?
Is there some array wildcard I can use? In other words, I have an array. Is there any wildcard function/character that will let me test to see if a string matches anything in that array? Thanks -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
