Use code tags in the forum, and try to organize your code a bit. There are a couple of errors in your code ($page variable inside first array element? some escaped HTML in the middle of nowhere down at the bottom?).

Here I fixed it a bit. (There are still some grammar errors in your array).

 

<?php
function search()
{
    global $userrow, $numqueries;
    if (isset($_POST['explor'])) {
        $title = "Search";
        
        $my_array = array("<font color=#C0C0C0>Burnt buildings and rubble everywhere.</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#CB5634>You come across a old man looking for food.",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#CB5634>The sound of bombs going off in the distance.</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#CB5634>You can smell a faint gas oder from a main line under the street.</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#CB5634>You feel eyes upon you.</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#CB5634>Your being followed.</font>",
                            "<font color=#00CE00>You found Money...</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#CB5634>You have no idea where you are right now.</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#0000FF>What a long day.</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#CB5634>As you walk you see lifeless bodies you use to call friends.</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=#CB5634>There is a noise ... just a rat.</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>",
                            "<font color=yellow> You Found a Stone</font>",
                            "<font color=#C0C0C0>You found Nothing...</font>");
        
        for ($i=0; $i<=10; $i++) { // Here you should change the '10' for the number of times the player searched.
            $random = array_rand($my_array);
            $parola .= $my_array[$random];
        }
    }

    if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
        $title = "Search";
    } else {
        $title = "Search";
        $page .= "<form action=index.php?do=search method=post>
                  <table align=center width=100%><tr><td align=center bgcolor=red valign=top>SEARCH</td></tr>
                  <tr><td align=left>".$parola."
                  <center><input align=center name=explor type=submit value=SEARCH />
                  </center></td></tr></table>
                  <center><a href=index.php?do=towninf>GO BACK[/url]</center>
                  </form>";
    }
    display($page, $title);
}
?>

 

The array element that contains "You found some money" is key number 13 I believe. So you need to check inside your for loop:

 

<?php
    if ($random == '13') {
        updateDatabaseFunctionOrOtherThing($arguments);
    }
?>

 

Since I assume this is a game, and updating the database a bunch of times inside a for loop would be somewhat unwise, do something like:

 

<?php
    if ($random == 13) { // if you found money
        $moneyGained += rand(1,69); //add some coins.
    }

    //Then OUTSIDE the for loop
    updateMoneyInDatabaseFunction($moneyGained);
?>

 

Regards.
