[snip] Is it possible to request that a string CONTAINS another string...? EG: $string = "1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9"; if ($string CONTAINS "7") {Tipp: Do not use preg_match() if you only want to check if one string is contained in another string. Use strpos() or strstr() instead as they will be faster.// Do stuff} [/snip] Almost any regex function would work here, for instance $string = "1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9"; if (preg_match("/7/", $string)){ //evaluates to true// Do stuff} From php.net:
