The specification of this function is misleading. <?php $os = array("mac"=>"Mac", "NT", "Irix", "Linux"); if (in_array("mac", $os)) { echo "Got mac"; } // prints Got mac !!! ?> in_array searches both values AND indexes IF it is not running in the strict mode! Correct specification: Checks if a value or a key exists in an array. In the strict mode, checks if a value exists in an array. ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 68.195.88.78 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.in-array.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/71400 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71400/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71400/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71400/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71400/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71400/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71400/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71400 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/71400 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
