Ok, I've got a code which checks a webpage with the word and validates it, but I get a 500 error code during fopen...

Now one of the WHILEs is repeating in the script, when the guess uses correct letters

search_array() is giving me problems... is it PHP5?

Ok.. what if I'm not running PHP5 :S - Ralph

Will do Orio. Where do I put the 'correct' and 'incorrect' bits? - Ralph

Thanks Barand, but the idea is that users don't have to guess a nine-letter word, instead, they can have words of any length from 2-9 letters. - Ralph

Hi guys, I'm trying to make a letters game, whereby a user is given 9 random letters, and must try to form the longest valid word from those letters. My problem is that I cannot create a code to validate that the letters in the user's guess are actually letters which they were given. If a user uses letters he was not given, or uses letters more than once (if they only appear once), then they haven't given a valid answer. The letters which the user receives are entirely random, and make up one string, so [code]$letters = "AIKNFOLAP";[/code] as opposed to being 9 separate strings. I hope someone can help. - Ralph
