if then statement help...please

[TCovert]

How would I code an if then statement like this:

if $variable1 = $this, $this, $this or $this then do this.

Basically, if variable1 = any one of these, then do this.

Any suggestions?

two ways

[man]if[/man]

if($variable1 == $this || $variable1 == $that || $variable1 == $something){
//do something
}

or [man]switch[/man]

switch($variable1){
case $this:
case $that:
case $something:
    //do it here
    break;
case default:
    //if it doesn't match the others, do this
    break;
}

hope that helps

Put all of those in an array. Just make it easier

$array = array("foo","bar","biz","baz");
if(in_array($variable1,$array)) {
   // do something
}
