RE: [PHP] switch statement question

[snip] Say i have a variable $string_var = "Once upon a time"; is there a way to do this: Switch($string_var) { case(contains "Once"): doSomething(); break; case(contains "the end.") doOtherThing(); break; case(contains "time") doNothing(); break; default: echo "ERROR" } [/snip] http://www.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.switch.php Yes Virginia, there is a PHP function :^]. You can explode your $string_var into an array, loop through the array and test each word for a match. HTH! Jay
