1. how do I say "if this thing is equal to ANY OF THESE OTHER THINGS"

And these other things are dynamic, and there can be a different quantity of these other things.

2. Can you put a while funtion inside another while function? I tried it and it didn't seem to work... How can it work?

1)  Yes you can.  The method for doing so depends on what these many other things are and how your program or database is storing them.

2)  You can do that also.
[code]<?php
$outer = 1;
while($outer< 10){
  $inner = 1;
  while($inner< 10){
    echo "$inner * $outer = " . $inner++ * $outer . "<br/>";
  }
  $outer++;
?>[/code]

1. I have an array, lets say 2,4,6,8
Next, I have a number x (just some random number between 1-10)

Whenever x matches any of the elements of the array, I want it to echo MATCH (for example)

BTW, the variable x changes because it is in a while loop.

Take a look at the function [url=http://www.php.net/in_array]in_array()[/url].
