A simple function to type less when wanting to check if any one of many values is in a single array.
<?php
function array_in_array($needle, $haystack) {
//Make sure $needle is an array for foreach
if(!is_array($needle)) $needle = array($needle);
//For each value in $needle, return TRUE if in $haystack
foreach($needle as $pin)
if(in_array($pin, $haystack)) return TRUE;
//Return FALSE if none of the values from $needle are found in $haystack
return FALSE;
}
?>
