[RESOLVED] Problem with in_array

[zzz]

😕 Hi,

I have a basic script that takes an array, builds a select drop-down menu. When submitted it saves Key value in db. Later when the page loads I am trying to get that value, check if it's in my array and if yes, select appropriate option line.

if (in_array($myClass->myVar, $myArray)) {
	$mySelect = 'preset';
} else {
	$mySelect = 'custom';
}

No matter what I do I keep getting

$mySelect == 'custom'

even if I directly copy a key value from my array and paste in this "if" statement to test.

I've tried strict as well, same results.

Lost.

Perhaps what you want to be using is [man]array_key_exists[/man]?
