Functions error....

[phproces]

Hey, I've been working on the next function, problem is that it ALWAYS returns false.....

$blaat = 'add_download, add_news, add_user, delete_user, delete_download, delete_user';

function rights ($needs, $rights) {	//begin rights function
	$right2 = explode(", ", $rights);
	if(in_array("$needs", $right2)) { 	//begin if else rights toekennen
		$right = 'yes'; } else { $right = 'no';	
	}	
	return $right;								//end if else rights toekennen
}									//end function rights
$test = rights("add_news", $rights);
echo 'Does it work?' .$test; 

Why could that be???

Hmm, try taking the double quotes from around the needle in your in_array() statement, but actually, it might be that you're feeding the function a null value? What's the value of $rights ? I don't see it here, is it elsewhere in the script?

try

$test = rights("add_news", $blaat);

instead of

$test = rights("add_news", $rights);
