RE: [PHP-DB] In_Array in Query

not as sucj, but you could consider a sub-select (providiing your version of mysql supports it) something like this might also work $query = "select id from table where somefield [in|=|like] (". in_array(row,'$user_area').")"; Bastien

I know I could create a loop where it would go through each one, but I was hoping not to do something like the following: $query = "select id from table where row = $user_area[0] OR row = $user_area[1] OR row = $user_area[2]" -- Kevin Murphy Webmaster: Information and Marketing Services Western Nevada Community College www.wncc.edu 775-445-3326
