[SOLVED] in_array and strpos

[Bricktop]

Hi all,

 

I have an array of text and would like to check if the text in the array is present in a server response.

 

So, this is how I would like it to work:

 

$errors = array(
"Once upon a time",
"A long time ago",
"In a galaxy far far away",
"This script is broke"
);      
if (in_array(strpos($response, $errors)))

 

But the above does not work, because you cannot use strpos on an array.  If I do:

 

$errors = array(
"Once upon a time",
"A long time ago",
"In a galaxy far far away",
"This script is broke"
);      
if (strpos($response, 'Once upon a time') || strpos($response, 'A long time ago) || strpos($response, 'In a galaxy far far away') || strpos($response, 'This script is broke))

 

Then it works fine, but obviously this is not an efficient way of achieveing the result.

 

Anyone have any better ideas?

 

Thanks

Use a loop.

[Mardoxx]

use in_array

 

//edit, wrong one

 

<?php
$errors = array(
"Once upon a time",
"A long time ago",
"In a galaxy far far away",
"This script is broke"
);     
$response = "Once upon a time";
if (in_array($response, $errors)) {
echo "found";
} else {
echo "not found";
}

//script echos found
?>

foreach($errors as $check)

{

strpos($response, $check);

}

Thanks for the help guys - didn't think of using loops!
