If you don't need the power of recursive functions, and you want to just search within an array
for the existence of a string pattern, you can always try this:
if( strpos( implode( "", $array2search), "pattern" ) > -1 )
{
// code to execute here
}
It's kind of lame and childish, but gets the job done in a pinch.
Forgive me if someone else suggested this previously. I was racking my brain trying to do this using
array_search(), in_array() and the like, and all I wanted was something dead simple.
