note 38983 added to function.in-array

I combined some ideas in previous notes to this elegant function for checking against values in multi-dimensional arrays. It also solves the bug mentioned by Raphinou, which is 'If the haystack contains the boolean true, in_array returns true!!'. bool in_array_multi ( mixed needle, array haystack ) <?php function in_array_multi($needle, $haystack) { static $return = false; if (!is_array($haystack)) return false; while (list($key, $value) = each($haystack)) { if ($value == $needle) { $return = true; break; } if (is_array($value)) in_array_multi($needle, $value); } return $return; } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.in-array.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+38983 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+38983&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+38983&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
