Something to keep in mind is that array_key_exists is case sensitive. So two things I'd like
to say:
1. Could there be an additional option added on to the array_key_exists command so you can specify
the case to be insensitive?
2. Here is how you can do this test in one command:
if( preg_match("/<key>/i", join(",", array_keys(<array>))) ){
<Do something>
}
But it would be a lot nicer to just have an additional option on the array_key_exists. Like so:
array_key_exists(<array>, ["i"] );
Ok - so why did this come up at all? I wrote a routine to convert any whacky UppERcAsE kind of
lettering to just be lowercase letters. (ex: FgColorS becomes fgcolors and so forth.) So I never
had to guess what the user was putting in to the program. There were two particular items (fgColors
and bgColors) which I wanted to test against. If they were not supplied, my program would supply
them. The above was the easiest way I could come up with to do this. :-)
