if (in_array($x, array ('cats', 'dogs', 'birds))) {

Here's a suggestion that we(local developers in Carbondale,IL) all feel
would improve usability of the control structures in PHP.
What if in this statement...
if (($x == 'cats') && ($x == 'dogs') && ($x ==
'birds')) {
we instead could say...
if ($x IN 'cats','dogs','birds') {
This would reduce typing and allow you to compare lists(arrays) in your
conditional statements without using array functions.
