[SOLVED] Compare String

[N-Bomb(Nerd)]

Hi, I'm asking my user for input but when I do an "if" statement to see if their input matches something already that's in an array but I can't get it to use the array properly. It will only check against "Word1", what can I do different to make it use the whole array of words?

 

$Wap[0] = "Word1";
$Wap[1] = "Word2";

if (strtolower(Input($Value)) == strtolower($Wap[0]) {
echo 'word already exists';
}

Try in_array()

 

I think that is what you want.

 

edit:

 

<?php

$words = array('a','b','c');
$check = 'a';

if(in_array($check,$words)){

echo "Sorry but $check is already in the array";

}

?>
