[SOLVED] check value against an array

[severndigital]

ok I have an array

$salt = array('A','C','D','F','P','N');

 

and I have a value

$var = 'Z';

 

The example is in Letters because the vars I will be matching are letters.

I want to check it against the array and see if it matches any of the values.

I could write a long ifelse() statment but i was hoping to do in 2 or 3 lines instead. In knowing that that array may change in the future.

 

any ideas??

 

thanks,

chris
