Checking Values

[Anon]

Is there anyway to check a part of a value to see if it consist of specific words. For instance...

If a value from a database = "Availalbe Now"

I want to see if that value returned consists of the word "Available" how would I do that?

Thanks

Using is this way, why would I get this error...

If ereg("PENDING",$Available);
(
$Font = "green";
}

Error:
Parse error: parse error, expecting `'('' in /home/ejfweb/ejfrealestate-www/html/forrent.php on line 194

the right syntax is :

If (ereg(\"PENDING\",$Available))
{
$Font = \"green\";
}
