I'm not sure if this is the best way, but it should work 🙂

// Not tested
if(strstr($V,"some word")) {
echo "Your text box contained 'some word'\n";
} else {
echo "Your text box DID NOT contain 'some word' in it.... go away plz\n";
}

Hope this helps 🙂

You could tokenize your string. You do this using the explode(' ', $V) function, this will place each word in an array. Then get the length of the array then loop thru the array. Inside your loop compare $ARRAY[$i] with the words you're looking for.
This algorithm works better than Josh's if you are looking for more than one word regardless if their beside each other or not. But if you're searching for a single word try Josh's
